First Death Claim

The inevitability of this job is having to do claims for clients, but never will I expect the first death claim to come from somebody who was relatively close to me, and cause of death was unnatural. He was somebody I had met last year. 

We had coffee almost every morning learning from each other for about 6 months. We talked about anything under the sun. He told me about how beautiful a family he had. He was the kind of guy that calls a male a 'bro' and female a 'sister'.

He is someone you will warm up to really quickly as he was a cheerful guy with a happy go lucky attitude, but I guess there are things about people you never really understand.

Few months ago, it was almost impossible to reach him. No more text, no more phone calls... nothing. All communication with him practically stopped. he never kept to his promse of staying in contact. We were suppose to have coffee. We were suppose to meet up but his phone was off. Now he is gone...

Why?

I have been asking this question ever since I heard the news last week. Why? Something I will bring to my grave as well.
