Life Is So Fragile

It is with a heavy heart and tears in my eyes that I have to tell you that Always Compete, whose real name is Jeff Dominique has had a personal tragedy in his life that is going to have to make him step away from the blog. I got this e-mail from him this afternoon: Mark, I am done for awhile. My son Kristopher died in his sleep last night.

It is with a heavy heart and tears in my eyes that I have to tell you that Always Compete, whose real name is Jeff Dominique has had a personal tragedy in his life that is going to have to make him step away from the blog.

I got this e-mail from him this afternoon:

Mark,
 
I am done for awhile.  My son Kristopher died in his sleep last night.  I had a post ready to go for tomorrow.  You can publish it or change it.  
 
I will let you know when I am ready to come back.
 
Jeff

I have 2 sons and a daughter and cannot comprehend losing one. It is simply incomprehensible. Please send your thoughts and prayers to Jeff, Andy and his family and I wish them Godspeed.

You will read his post tomorrow. I have so many tears….

Please send Jeff your thoughts.

I don’t even know what to say…

Please send him your prayers, support, and thoughts.

    So sorry for your loss, AC, I can’t even fathom the pain, being a father of 4. I can promise you this, you will see your son again in a much better place, no sickness, no pain, just love. Peace to you brother.

    Prayers to you and your family AC. This is so sad to hear as parents shouldn’t have to outlive their children. I can’t even begin to comprehend your grief. My condolences.
