Well guys,
11/12 was a sad day for a family/group of people, and for the company I work for. One of our beloved employees passed away. Not only did he pass away, but he passed away because of Pancreatic Cancer at ONLY the age of 34. Struggled with it for three years and left behind his 4 year old daughter and his wife who was pregnant with his 2nd child who is due any day now.
Here are the letters that were sent from our world headquarters in Geneva at first announcing his loss, then the follow up email explaining his unfortunate event in more detail. Some text was left out to protect identities.

Dear Colleagues
As You are aware from below email our colleague (his name) ( 34) Passed away after 3 years of struggling fight with Pancreatic Cancer .
His remarkable dedication until last month when he was still attempting to come to work shows his dedication but more importantly his will and fight to battle this devastating disease.
What the announcement of his Funeral is not mentioning is that (his name) is leaving behind a wife , a 4 year hold daughter and a new child that will be born shortly .
The (last name) family has opened a Trust, our intention is to contribute to the fund as generous as we can.
Mine is just an informal request that I hope will touch each individual, therefore I’m asking all of the Office managers you to gently pass the news of (his name) death along with his story so that the Job he contribute to build a stronger MSC until the eve of his death will not be done in vain and his children will be able to finish their studies thanks to MSC Family Contribution .
Please feel free to spread the request amongst you relatives , friend , Customers, vendors as every penny will really count !
If you would want to make a donation please send a check to the HR department in NY addressed to Mediterranean Shipping Company indicating in the memo field (his name) Fund”. We will then deliver all amount collected to (his name) family.
Thanks for your attention in this matter
I am in no way shape or form asking for a donation. I just wanted to share this and with detail because cancer is one of the reasons we are crunching and daily it takes more lives. this man was 34 years old and left behind a growing family. I won't say it brings tears to my eyes, but it sure as hell had a affect on my work day and even now. other people in the office must have seen this email and thats it. But I know what this is, I have over paid my electric bill since February because of it, I have spent thousands and also received thousands of hard earned dollars in hardware from other great members who are also familiar with this. It's CANCER, and it took the life of this young man. Guys, just keep crunching, fuck I ain't never stopping!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My grief/best wishes goes out to him and his family. I will be confirming details tomorrow and sending out whatever I can spare for my donation as employee of the company I am.
