The man that died worked as an IC for the same company that I contract for. It is sad indeed. He was always positive, and each person that he saw was new posting to the forums, he always gave a virtual bunch of flowers to ....his wife also worked as an IC for the same company...
No good, its hard enough reading about this sort of thing let alone knowing a person that it has happened to.
I pray his family has the strength to carry on and may he RIP.
