RIP Naya Rivera

[BusSport]

5 days ago, actress Naya Rivera's 4-year-old son was found alone on a boat on Lake Piru in California, setting off a search-and-rescue effort.

Today, divers found her body in the lake.

At 33 years old, she is the third member of the main cast of Glee (she played Santana Lopez) to die as a thirtysomething, leading to social media speaking of a "Glee curse":

- Cory Monteith (who played Finn Hudson) overdosed at age 31.

- Mark Salling (who played Puck Puckerman) hanged himself at age 35.

Cory Monteith died on July 13, 2013, which is, to the day, exactly 7 years ago from the recovery of Naya Rivera's body.

Sad... Sounds like the boat drifted away from her & her son while they were swimming in the lake. Probably took everything she had to get her son back to the boat.

Ouch.

But a beautiful way to go...

Such a horrible story, I can't imagine what her son is going through

He will always know he was loved more than life itself. As long as he can focus on that, he should get strength from it.


Easier said than done. Granted.

There is something very kennedyesque about being on that show

Very sad story

This simple post stirred up some dust in my office.

I really need to clean more often...

Yeah it did the same here. Second time today, my eyes must be fucked up or something. I obviously gotta go see a doctor, but the kind of doctor that a really manly man goes to

Just heartbreaking though. The events are so sad and so beautiful all at the same time.

For something sports related it also made me think of Joe Delaney
