I just wanted to add my sorrow and condolences to this thread. It's a heart-breaking death of someone so full of life and vitality. Lenya was truly vibrant and impulsive and will never be replaced in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. I can only imagine how devastated Marat must be. I have a few small pieces of info on the crash - forgive me if I'm repeating anyone else's reports but it might serve to clarify this horrendous tragedy. It's hard not to wonder if he had been wearing a crash helmet, whether he would have survived. He'd had 8 accidents in 5 years and everyone was telling him to wear his helmet....but that won't change things now. It wasn't the impact with the truck that killed him, but the crash threw him several meters, and landing on the asphalt road was what did it. At least it was instant and there is some small comfort in that. The police took over 2 hours to identify him because he didn't have any documentation on him. It wasn't till his friend Nerushaylo [sp?] called his mobile, that the police found out who he was. Lenya had been at a restaurant with parents, his sister and some friends that evening, and was simply on his way home. Nerushaylo had gone ahead, and was calling to say he was waiting at Lenya's house...... The mini-Leo site will stay online as a small but constant memorial to a fearless, refreshing and irreplaceable man. .....Miss you already, Lenya.....

Yesterday there was a program on Russian TV where they highlight all the major accidents of the past week and there was a piece about Lenya's Horrible....seriously...it was a nightmare of a crash but at least (as Ruth pointed out) he didn't suffer.....Rest in peace sweetie They showed the funeral too....beautiful ceremony and thousands of people and everything was covered with flowers. One thing I truly liked was the fact that on the little name plate it says "Lenya Nerushenko" (not Leonid), makes me remember him fooling around like a little boy and enjoying life

Waitin for the dawn Waiting for the night Waiting for the dawn Waiting for the night The day is too long The day is too bright The day is too long The day is too bright Love me Love me to the end
This man pursues you A dagger in his hand This man pursues you A dagger in his hand Yet he will never Get into our land Yet he will never Get into our land Love me Love me to the end
Fall dawn by my side Down in my arms Fall dawn by my side Dawn in my arms This night is forever No morning will come This night is forever No morning will come. Love me Love me to the end. Love me Love me to the end.
(Deine Lakaien - Dark Star)
The music is fantastic if you want to hear it....
Rest in peace Leo

i can't believe it, i really can't. to his family and his friends, especially his girlfriend (and marat) -there is little you can do but just grieve the loss of a wonderful man. don't push it, only time can heal these wounds.
"Since You've Been Gone" by Powderfinger. Bernard wrote it for his brother who died and i think it is approapriate.
There's a truth begging to be told as the blues grab and take a hold To continue like this only acts as a force for no good
I just want to say that I miss you and I've felt pitiful since you've been gone I'm just trying to say I need something I can lean against So I'm going to steady myself on a reliable friend
There's a weight dragging through my days that I spend trying to fill the space That's been there since the day that we parted and made our goodbyes
There's a truth begging to be told as the blues grab and take a hold And I just can't believe when i wake up that you could be gone
