    It's amazing that he had so many online aquaintences/friends and still thought suicide was the only way out.

    Does anyone have any idea what he was going through? Money problems? Heallth Problems?

      I'd never got to know him but I'd read his post on other boards and he always seemed like a good guy.

      Rest in peace.

        There are a lot of people who go through depression in our industry nowdays it seems.

        Very sad and disturbing it took Willy.

        Was he going through some tough times in the past few months?
        He seemed like such an upbeat guy.

        Disturbing. Very Disturbing and sad.

        RIP. I only wish there were another way.

        I too would be intrested in a transcript or replay of DOKK's Radio show of last night.

                        Wow...what heart breaking news. I will always remember his antics on Dokk's shows and his sage advice on netsurprise. He always had a kind word for everyone.

                        RIP Willy

                          It's sad to see people go out like this.

                          Kaiser what was going on?

                          My prayers are with family and friends

                            When someone is considering suicide, it doesn't matter how many friends he or she has....they feel isolated from society...and, once the decision is made to die...they can seem upbeat and renewed.

                                    What horrible news!! He just got married not too long ago and seemed like he had everything goin smoothe. He helped me the very first time I used free hosting Thanks WillyB for being such a nice guy and a helluva beer drinking buddy! Sorry none of us in the webmaster community could help you.

                                    My sincere condolences to his family.

                                    Depression... what a dangerous disease. No one can ever really know how bad people are feeling. What a wake up call to make sure your loved ones know how much you care about them.

                                                        Sad day indeed.

                                                        Only heard WIllyB once on Dokks show but you could tell he was a genuine guy.

                                                        He will be missed.

                                                                        Life is so full of tragic endings sometimes. Its hard to comprehend why people do what they do but many choose this path. Over 800,000 people kill themselves each year. More than 2,000 people each day. That's mind boggling when you think about it. Close to the total of how many were killed in the WTC attack taking their lives voluntarily each and every day.

                                                                        Problem is we live in a world that slaps us with so damn many stresses and pressures on our minds and souls. Its remarkable to me that far more people don't do it. I'm sure for everyone that does there are hundreds if not thousands that have seriously thought about it at one or more times in their lives.

                                                                        I had a business partnership with the owner of Chippendales years ago and Steve had put out a contract hit on someone and got nailed on it and he was looking at decades behind bars in state prison and he chose to hang himself while he was in jail. Amazing, and he had everything in the world, a successful worldwide business, tens of millions of dollars, a nice family, and he just decided to end it all.

                                                                        Life is hard, very hard. Even having success, money, family and friends often can't resolve internal depression. Its sad.

                                                                        Last edited by KRL; 10-03-2003, 12:36 PM.

                                                                                Seeing your pale, too-quiet face.

                                                                                Knowing you won't warm me with your breaths

                                                                                I am cold inside, gasping, strangling,

                                                                                Because you left your body dangling

                                                                                In a convenient place.

                                                                                Again and again I rise

                                                                                From the ashes of my life.

                                                                                But my arms are empty, my eyes yearn still

                                                                                Because we buried your ashes on a hill

                                                                                With your great-grandfather and his wife.
                                                                                I wait for the time when I am old and so

                                                                                Leave the pain along the way,

                                                                                Of wishing you had fought to see life flow

                                                                                To all the good times just ahead.

                                                                                But you wouldn't wait, and I die instead

                                                                                A thousand times each day.
