I have to agree with Brett, there’s no reason for Mrs. McKrakkin to feel the least bit responsible. That being said, I know how *I* would feel in her place and I am thankful it is not me, because no one wants to feel that way. Still, it’s nice to know just how much people liked Mark, even if he didn’t know it. I bet he didn’t know Mr. Lapooza thought he was “a good kid”. 🙁
Thanks for showing us all of these reactions, it helps to illustrate just how many people can be impacted by a person’s death, whether they realize it or not. Death is inevitable, but how we shuffle off this mortal coil definitely matters, and one should always hope and work towards a good ending, even if you are scared of it. Hard to do, but ultimately it’s the best gift you can offer to yourself and others when the time comes. Until then though, love your family, friends and neighbors and try to make the most of your life, whatever that may look like. 🙂

Don’t feel too bad Mrs McKrakkin = you were trying to help.
