Jype 6,398 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 “Yet he was such an unlucky man. He lost both parents young, his brother and sister have physical handicaps. His little brother recently killed himself by jumping out of a window. He had the most unfortunate life."The man certainly did not have things easy in his life and to die like that it's just horrible.
