young kb j.p member died a year ago

[JimO]

about a year ago i had contact from a young guy that was a fairly new member wanting to buy a bike off me his kb name was j.p about a week later he collapsed on a sports field whilst playing soccer for his high school and died aged around 17, apparently he had a pre existing heart condition that know one knew about, tragically his father had also died a few months earlier. It had slipped my mind until i spotted his memoriam in todays paper, RIP Jean-Phillepe Dufour...

Jesus... imagine the heartbreak for the Wife and Mother in the middle of this

Rings a bell. Has a brother or sister with the same condition who is in danger as well? Hereditary disease.

Such a tragedy and alters ones perspective and values in life.
