View all 7 ReflectionsI am so sorry to see such a young dog like you pass. Having it be done by teenagers dispirited me because I am also a teenager, at the time I am typing this, and it saddens me that some people my age are willing to make such stupid decisions with only themselves in mind. I really hope that Joker is having the time of his life now, 30 years now after your death. R.I.P. Joker.
