Rambler Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 There seems to be no rhyme nor reason.... "dumbfounded" is a good word. It can be like that, those thoughts running around in your brain. The poet Mary Karr, who got pretty far out on the limb, noted that “I have a disease whose defining symptom is believing you dont have a disease” and that “my head thinks it can kill me and go on living without me (Karr, Lit)” Peace, Albert John. And for anyone else checking in who might be plagued obsessive thoughts, I hope you can find a way to break out of the loop. Rambler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
62burst Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 ... Words fall so short. "everything seemed fine". Life IS so fragile. We lost one of us. May someone play Peter's guitar for him. Thank you Johnt, and spot-on, Rmblr. Peace to Peter. Love to those still here. (going outside now to look at the barren trees) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyearspickn Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Six years back, a close co-worker killed herself. Two children, Ph.D in nursing. It made no sense. But, she was on anti-depressants and stopped taking them cold turkey. Although a Nursing School Professor who should have known better - it put her into a downward spiral she could not recover from. Life is too fragile, and when we are reminded of it by a close friend or colleague, we can never forget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnt Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 A Eulogy from Peters friend Robbie Gladwell Here with Robbies permission For my dear friend Peter Forsey RIP. In the words of the song Peter, 'Wish you were here' I enjoyed the years we shared together playing around the pubs and clubs of north Essex. You reached such a good standard on guitar and your singing was getting to be really good :-) I will miss you terribly! I just hope that your guitars and amps have gone up to 'Nirvana' with you - you won't be short of good players to form a band with! If you need a reference, let me know. Keep in touch if you can... it doesn't matter how you do it.... all your mates would love to hear from you. Love & peace, Robbie Robbie on left,Ash in middle.Peter on right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thermionik Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Tragic news..... words fail me. He actually gave me some good advice (financial rather than musical) and I recall thinking what an even keel he sailed on. It is a strange, strange world. Thank you for he heads up, JohnT.

j45nick Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Robbie on left,Ash in middle.Peter on right What a sad loss for friends, family, and those he impacted upon. Every time this happens, I ask to be spared the feeling of hopelessness that must drive someone to this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnt Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 The band are getting together a musical tribute for him at his local pub in Essex on March 2nd ( dammit we're out of the country!)
