how many people from your year in school have died?

[-:Undertaker:-]

how many people if any have passed away in your year at school and from what?

we sadly had two people in my year die not long after leaving school, both in wheelchairs due to conditions which just got worse. one lad was so lovely too and was my mate in primary school.

what about you?

OH GOOD YOU MADE THIS THREAD SO I DIDNT HAVE TO

so many i can't count but 2 of them i had on facebook before they died so they're still on my f/list. one was my childhood bffs older sister (died at 19) and it feels rly weird that am now older than her when she should be 2 years older than me. drunk driver crashed into her car. the other one was a guy i used to date in my teens, he crashed his motorbike into 3 vans. we stopped seeing each other because he started taking drugs... after his dad died in a motorcycle accident... the day he died, he was still set to online on his facebook chat for a couple days which was unsettling.

thought this said school oops!! they were all years above me, don't think anyone in my year..

[lemons]

one last year just before xmas from leukaemia, she was the nicest person in our year honestly!

[lawrawrrr]

I don't know of anyone from my year at my school who has died, touch wood...

Several during high school, but only one really affected me. He was a good friend of mine in junior high. Me and him kind of grew apart during our Freshman year, and then he died in a car accident. It was really sad. He was a super nice, innocent kid. Probably the last person at that school that deserved to die. Just a really nice guy.

Ummmm I'm certain there was someone but I cant remember at all who/what happened. I'm certain of it tho ;o

tbh our school was so big i hardly knew anyone

From my secondary school we've had two suicides in my year within six months of each other. Also, I know one of the boys in my year went missing about a month ago and I've not seen anything saying whether he was found or is still missing so I don't know what's happening there.

I didn't really know any of them as the two suicides were both girls in the other half of the year to mine and the boy wasn't in any of my classes either.

And we had one other death while I was in school but I think I was Year 11 and he was Year 8; he drowned on the second to last day of the summer holidays messing around with his friends in the river. They thought he was pretending to drown and then he died.

One in my year who had cystic fibrosis

Two died whilst I was in school. The first was in second year and died from cancer. She suffered for a really long time poor girl, can't say I knew her personally she was friends with a lot of my friends though. Another died when I was in third year, can't remember why but I know it was something to do with her heart. She sat behind me in maths class and I remember her and my maths teacher used to get along so well. The day after she passed away he was so devastated in class he just sat down for it and didn't say a word, poor guy :(

Two died in my year then a few in the whole school. I remember for each one they took the whole year into the hall and told us. One killed herself because she was being bullied then the other died of a drug overdose that her boyfriend gave to her on purpose.
One boy in the year above survived cancer then died because he got hit by a train a few months later. Another girl got hit by a rubbish van thing on her way to pick up her a level results.

None that I'm aware of, aside from the girl who had heart problems when I was in year 5.

[xxMATTGxx]

I'm only aware of one and they died because of an accident at work. So it was in the local news and all over Facebook at the time. I don't think anyone else has but can't be 100% certain.

[FlyingJesus]

None from high school, 2 from middle school that I'm aware of

[Gina]

[Elegance]

this thread was weird timing

[Nick]

[rnix]

[thms]

one as far as i know, she was really lovely and a really close friend of my best friend so we spoke quite frequently. she was really funny too, but sadly she killed herself and nobody expected it. been about two years since she passed i think

Up until Tuesday I didn't know anyone in my year had died, but someone actually did in 2014! She went to my college and was in the same year, and was good friends with one of the people in my Media Studies class and someone I work with now - she died in a car accident, her boss offered her a lift home and ended up crashing into a field and she lost her life at 19. The verdict was announced on Tuesday and because he sustained brain damage from crashing his car he got off with a suspended sentence (something like 18 months) and a driving ban for around 30 months, ridiculous!

Someone in the year above me passed away, and it sort of got to me a lot more than I thought it would - I saw people putting RIP on Facebook and I had lived 4 doors down from her for most of my life and she'd only moved out a few years prior to her death; it was so shocking! She passed away peacefully, but she did have mental health problems.

I don't think I know anyone from my own year at school that has died. I've heard of other people my age who have died since leaving school but I never knew them.

A girl in my form back in Year 8 I believe died from cancer. She was the only person who died while I was in school (I finished education in 2008). Since then a guy I had a few classes with died from a condition he was born with, and a really good friend sadly died in a car accident.
