Tragic swimming and sporting loss

 I was totally stunned and saddened to hear about the unexpected and tragic death of Norwegian swimming star Alexander Dale Oen.    It reminded me of the sudden and also horribly unexpected death of Russian figure skater Sergei Grinkov.  Both were in the prime of their lives and in seemingly tremendous physically fit health.  I mourn him with the swimming community and the country of Norway.
