You Only Live Once. Mitchell Adam Lucker//Suicide Silence.

"When, Mitchell gets on stage. He becomes this magnificent beast." - Mitch's mom

As you all are aware, today has been a saddening day. Earlier this evening, I received a text message from my friend saying, "Merp Merp, I can't believe Mitch's died." My heart just stopped and waking up to see that message on my phone stunned me. It was like some sick cycle, when The Rev died and I got a text on that day. I couldn't believe it! Mitch was only 28 years old and left his little girl behind without a father figure. He'd never get to see her go to prom, get married, and have kids. All because of this horrible, cruel joke. I wish this was just a nightmare.

I don't know what Suicide Silence is going to do now. Because, Mitch's voice can't be dupilated. His lows were fucking brutal and I had the privilege to see him live, last year and I've met him numerous of times. He was so sweet and beautiful with those gracious dimples. I always get mad at him because I could never get a decent picture with him, lol. But, at least I got to spend as much as time with him like the fan that I am. I know it will be difficult to fathom this tragedy. But, just I came to realize with The Rev. Mitch would not want me to be sad. So, I'm ending this letter here. Before, I burst into tears. Even though, Suicide Silence wasn't everyone's cup of tea. Its still nice to see people come together and celebrate the life of this gorgeous man. Like, Alex Koehler stated:

"We all lost a hero today, but legends never die."

Mitch, I will never look at another power stomp again without thinking about you. You had so much energy at shows and know how to get a crowd fucking moving. I'm blessed to have met you and I can't wait to see you again soon. You're in heaven now with the company of The Rev, Dio, Paul Gray, Chuck Schuldiner, and Dimebag Darrell. I hope to see you soon. I love you, Mitchell Adam Lucker. Like, you stated.

"You only live once, so go fucking nuts."

Love, your biggest fan, Shanice J.
