I was extremely sad to learn about the passing of a friend.
Brad and I were friends prior to and during his years in Marilyn Manson. Drug abuse cost him his role in the band just before they got huge, and apparently it has now cost him his life.
I feel extremely sad for him. Last I talked to him he had 6 years clean, and was doing well.
I also feel extremely grateful to have come out of the same insanity and to live such a blessed life far beyond anything I could have ever deserved or imagined, by God's grace.
Very sad. I too lost several of my friends during the drug culture of the 60's. Most of them refused to the gospel. I don't understand why I should of escaped the same fate, but for the Grace of God...
