      I know work place is filled with a lot of envy, jealousy, hatred and grudge most time with a smile, got to watch what you eating and drinking, then again, maybe he was sick all along and it's a natural death. Sad, very sad, a good young life is no more. The pain, the family feels.

        Either the hands and mind of a wicked spiritual murderer, the results of the vaccine or a natural cause. As, death of the very young and old has become a normal occurance in the Virgins since some time now, and many are suspecting foul spiritrual evil play.
        Howver, if his demise was causeed by a human's evcil doing, rest be assured your/their day and theirs are onn its way.
        Meanwhile, time will heeal all wombs.
