Chaeya I am so very sorry for this pain. Words cannot express it.

I'm soo sorry to hear such disurbing news! Somethings off kilter this year!
May he rest in peace and may you find peace, Chaeya!

That is awful, I am so sorry sweetie.

My condolences.

I am disturbed by this deeply. I wonder what would make someone hurt another . it seems anymore its the people I try to help that screw me the worst. I hope when its time for me to leave this old rock that somebody thinks of me the way his friends think of him. I got all of you in my prayers and thoughts.

Thank you all, dearly, it means a lot to me. I'm having a very hard time because it isn't just losing someone you love, you're losing your band - like I said, there's no replacing him, once again I have to stand by and watch someone who had their own dreams and aspirations taken away from them through an untimely death, and then you have a human being who turned his life around for the better get rewarded with getting killed. I know life isn't fair, but sometimes you just can handle being reminded of the fact.

They released the first guy and then arrested another man. I hope they have the right guy this time. Here's the latest news:

I know its hard Chaeya but like you said he would want you guys to keep on going. I lost a friend just like that except like I said he died of Brain cancer on fathers day in 2007! Music really will never be the same for me. Its like part of my musical soul died with Glen. I went to see him a few days before he died I stayed for about 4 hours. When I got ready to leave he wouldn't let go of my hand. Its like He KNEW it would be the last time he would ever see me. I'll NEVER find a keyboard player like that again. Life goes on Chaeya you WILL play in a band like that again at some point! it will just be different.

Chaeya, I have a very deep sense, that Theron's reward will be great and righteous, beyond our imagination... I think that sometimes, to get there, we have to traverse through a very nasty membrane. Life on earth is unfair, but then again, I don't think Life on earth was meant to be our permanent state. Theron stepped out of the primordial soup and into the light...I'm sure of it. To that end, his soul is comforted, and thus, the souls of those who loved him should also be comforted. I do believe that love is not wasted here on earth... I believe we take that with us...
Anyway, Just hang In there and let time heal the pain... Grieve, cry, shout , laugh,...and cry some more. The time you had with him stays with you forever and nobody can take that away...

wow...such a bummer.

I pray for healing in all who were affected

Thanks guys, you're right, I know, but sometimes a lesson is hard to get when you're blinded by tears and hurt.

I remember reading something a long time ago about when great people die, that their spirit was so great that it needed to be sacrificed and that energy gets spread out onto the earth.

I think you're right though, that he will get his due, and that he's no longer in this pain of living. That there is a greater ALL out there that it's difficult for us in this muck can understand because we get so blinded by what we believe is the "reality" before us.

So sorry for your loss Chaeya. I feel for you girl.

5 years ago I lost my lifelong friend and keys player suddenly. The morning after a gig he had a massive stroke and passed away a few days later. We had played together off and on since we were 13 and it was like losing a brother. The entire band was devastated and our music changed forever that day.

As you already know, life must go on. Hang in there girl.

What a horrible, horrible thing. I am so very sorry for you, your bandmates, his family, and everyone else that he seems to have shined his light upon.

Many of us here, myself included, have lost fellow musicians. Those whom we play music with truly do become our family.

Take care of yourself.

his memory will be honored by you continuing to do what you do best.

Too heavy...
I can't imagine it.

I don't think I could make it psychologically if I were in your shoes.


I don't really know what to type, other than I'm so sorry for your loss...

Thanks. I won't lie; it's very rough. I have moments of being really inspired and I want to write something, then I'll have moments where I'm just a puddle of tears. I haven't worn make up in over a week because I know it's just wear off by the end of the day. His best friend and I have been sharing e-mails almost daily, so we're kind of healing each other. I've been staying extremely busy, so I don't know if that's a good thing or am I just avoiding the pain to come. His funeral is this Saturday, and I don't do good at those. ( I miss my friend.
