RIP Steve Irwin *poss trigger*

Posted by Racer on September 4, 2006, at 1:19:03

Steve Irwin, the "Crocodile Hunter," has reportedly been killed by a stingray strike to the chest, while filming on the Great Barrier Reef. He was 44 years old.

Part of me says that, tragic as this is, it's better to go quickly while doing something you feel passionate about. Most of me, though, says it's just an unmitigated tragedy. I wasn't necessarily a fan of his, but I still think it's a tragedy when someone so young dies suddenly like this, without a chance to say goodbye to his loved ones.

Funny, isn't it? At one time in my life, I would have thought 40 old. And I would have said he was lucky, not to have to do this anymore.

Pray, if you choose to, in memory of Steve Irwin, or anyone else you choose. Pray for his widow, and their children. Pray for us all, now and at the hour of our deaths.

I must be tired -- that doesn't sound like me at all. That poor man, and his poor widow.
