How sad to die alone and not have the body found for days afterwards ..hope he died suddenly and it was not a ligering death with some incapability to seek help.

Yup. The one that always gets me is Jhon instead of John. Pet peeve.

that's because dominicans have a tendency for alternative spelling of names for their kids. you don't want to know how many versions of stephanie i have seen...

going back to the OP. that happens. some gringos maintain a close circle of friends and their absence may not be missed for few days. also bear in mind that in a hot tropical climate decomposition process is greatly accelerated so the bodies start to smell pretty quickly.

I know a couple of Dominican "Jhons" (no pun intended). They spell it this way sometimes here.

This is sad. In this small thread of posts, I see a life filled with promise that seems to have gone off the rails, somehow.
