The one problem with the internet in general is the abstraction that takes place where we are anonymous entities that interact with other anonymous entities. It sometimes removes the humanity of it all. We forget that these usernames are people with lives, loves, hopes, dreams, families and real world issues. I never met Alex in person but interacted with him on here. He was a good poster and seemed like a generally good human being. I am so sorry for the loss to his family, loved ones and his friends. It seems like he impacted and inspired those around him. That is the hallmark of a good man. God Bless him and may he receive external peace.
