Cornelius Creek Shelter in Central VA, another death in a shelter?

[HikerMom58]

One Life, who is hiking the trail near Cornelius Creek, just told me about a death at this shelter today. He wanted me to check on wb, wondering if anyone has heard about this. Anyone heard anything about another shelter death. I hope it's not true.:confused:

Miss Joy talks about it here in her journal.

Thanks ShakeyLeggs....that's so sad.

Nice way to go, peacefully sleeping on the trail. Definitely much better than struggling to die in a hospital with all sorts of tubes, wires, and machines attached to you and stuck in you.
