Last night the Dawnbreakers brotherhood and Destiny lost an amazing Titan. Deriss, aka Joshua Foley, was a military vet, Titan master class boss, Dawnbreakers admin, and information guru.
Deriss joined our clan during Destiny beta days on Xbox One and has been a part of our clan ever since. Even when Destiny lost its light we still journeyed as a group of friends across many other awesome worlds until Destiny brought it back.
Deriss you were our clan’s pragmatic leader and resident smart guy but we enjoyed every moment of your life you were willing to share with your brothers. Deriss took his life after facing many battles both inward and outward. If you see a loved one struggling don’t let them fight the darkness alone because we don’t leave fireteam members behind.
Deriss.....Josh, although Destiny brought us together you’re presence and joy helped make us a family. We love you brother. Eyes up, Guardian.

I'm sorry for the loss of your friend. May you, your friends, his family, and his friends find peace in the grieving period. And for the folk who are like "don't post this, suicide trigger" this post very well could also save someone from doing it as well. There's two sides to the coin. Just cause it triggers you, it could save someone else. I nearly did the same thing a few months back. Had a plan too. I picked up my kitten to say good bye and she nuzzled my face and was purring and I thought, I can't leave her. I can't leave my wife, my step daughter, my cats. So I made a few phone calls, and got help. My point is, not everyone is the same. Because this may tilt you, it could also save someone by giving them the direction they need for help.
