Dear Todd Ransom,
I never knew you. I never met you. I've never seen you.
I am sad, sad, sad when I heard that you took your own life yesterday morning.
I have been trying to grieve your loss the best that I can.
I wish for your eternal happiness, even if you could not find happiness here.
I pray that you will be loved forever and ever.
I pray that others will not follow your example, but that we can learn from it.
I hope that those who are thinking about suicide will think again.
As I write this, I am trying to express my love to all people around the world who are gay, experience same-sex attraction, feel neglected, alone, or forgotten.
I love you. You are not alone.
Todd, rest in peace.
Love,
Andy F.
Thank you Andy. Todd was my oldest brother's best friend. They had known each other for 20 years. He also took me on one of my most memorable dates. He will be dearly missed.
