Such deaths.. So early.. Especially for someone so talented.. I, for one, had family members die so young. One was 16 (allergy), 19 (murder), 6 (bone cancer), 12 (suicide). They're all second cousins, and all within the past 10 months.
So when I say that it is really sad for someone so gifted, someone who earned more than I probably could in my lifetime, die early, is a great loss for all of humanity and for the kids who would rather sink in to Justin Bieber's "music". May she rest in peace. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Asus G73SW-XN2 OS Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 CPU Intel Core i7-2630QM@2GHz(2.9GHz Turbo Boost) [Sandy Bridge] Motherboard Asus G73SW (Intel HM65 Chipset) Memory Kingston DDR3 1333 16GB (4GBx4) Graphics Card nVidia GTX 460m 1.5GB Sound Card EAX Advanced HD 5.0, THX TruStudio Monitor(s) Displays 17.3 in. primary & 23 in. secondary Screen Resolution 1920x1080 Keyboard Built-in 102-Key Backlit Keyboard Hard Drives Seagate Momentus XT (SATA II) 500 GB @ 7200 RPM

Death, like income tax, is one of the two certainties in life, but to lose one so young and so talented is such a shame.
As boohbah rightly points out, we should all make the most of each day as it comes.
Rest in Peace, Arfa. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP Pavilion Elite 495UK OS Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64-Bit CPU Intel Core i7 870 @ 2.93GHz Motherboard MSI 2A9C (CPU1) Memory 8Gb Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 664MHz Graphics Card nVidia GeForce GTX 460 1024MB dedicated RAM Sound Card Realtek HD Audio Monitor(s) Displays HP2310i Screen Resolution 1920 x 1080 Keyboard Logitech K750 solar-powered keyboard Mouse Logitech Wireless M180 mouse PSU 460W Case HP Elite Cooling Air cooled Hard Drives 1x1954GB Hitachi HDS22020ALA 330 (RAID), 1x1954GB Hitachi External for backup and storage Internet Speed 2Mb Other Info Pure Avanti Flow Internet Radio with iPod Dock, 64Gb iPod, HP USB Speakers, Sony MDR-V500 Headphones, Sony Vaio F-Series Laptop Arfa Karim: History Of The Youngest Microsoft Certified Professional problems?
