Robert Follis, ein Coach von Xtreme Couture in Las Vegas ist verstorben. Follis war u.a. der Trainer von Miesha Tate und Kevin Lee. Follis verlies Xtreme Couture vor einigen Wochen, und sein Bruder beging vor einigen Jahren Selbstmord.
Die Polizei wertet den Tod ebenfalls als Selbstmord, er habe sich selbst erschossen. Zuvor deutete bereits sein Freund Randy Couture an, dass Follis sich umgebracht hat:
“Robert was a friend, coach, mentor, and philosopher of martial arts to many of us. It is with a very heavy heart that I write this tribute to a man that touched so many.
Death is like the sun. There is no escaping it. It infuses every part of our lives, but it doesn’t make sense to stare at it too long. That becomes a real challenge when someone you know, love, and respect ends their life. This is where Robert has been since his brother’s passing a couple years ago and where we are left now. It is very easy to get caught up in the urgency that comes from the limited span of our lives. It can push us to obsess over life’s meaning in the time we have. But obsessing over it, and staring directly at it too long can blind us to the possibilities of living.”
