Amherst College Homecoming this weekendI was meaning to write one of those milestone remembrances last week as I hit one million page views -- the highs and lows over six years of blogging -- but then Frankenstorm came calling and I had to live in the moment for a few days.
One very low story that haunts me to this day was the sudden death of promising young Amherst College student Jenny Kim; "sudden" being a euphemism for suicide. I still get a few web searchers coming here every week as a constant reminder.
Now I have another name that will haunt me for a very long time, probably forever: Trey Malone.
Trey too was a promising student attending Amherst College -- and like Ms. Kim he took his own life. Unlike Jenny Kim, we now know why he took his own life. I'll let him speak (for the final time) but provide no follow up.
I'm left speechless.
