30 Something

I got a call last night from the Department Head that another of our colleagues passed. Mr. Rodenberg was 27. He didn't show up for church and some of th members went to his apartment and found him. He was such a nice man. I was expecting the mood to be really somber at school, but it's not really. The teachers are mourning more than the students. I supposed that's because Seth just started working here in January and not many students had him as a teacher. One of my students was really bothered because he got into an arguement with Seth on Thursday and he wanted to apologize today, but now he doesn't have a chance to.

Death really bothers me. I wonder what would happen if I died at 30 or 31 or 32 or 33 or any age before 65? Would I be missed? Would someone come to look for me? Would people cry because I'm not here anymore? I don't have very many friends and I'm semi-estranged from my family? I don't have anyone--really.
