<-- Image: The house where Sylvia Plath died.
Sylvia Plath's son, Nicholas Hughes took his own life on March 16th, 2009, which was one week ago today, his sister Frieda told sources on Sunday.
Hughes was the son of Sylvia Plath. Plath, who also took her own life when Huges was only 1 years old, was a wonderful poet. She was also married to Ted Hughes: The man who destroyed her journal after her death.
Hughes was a great guy and he will definitely be missed. A family-friend had this to say about him:
"Nick wasn’t just the baby son of Plath and Hughes and it would be wrong to think of him as some kind of inevitably tragic figure. He was a man who reached his mid-forties, an adventurous marine biologist with a distinguished academic career behind him and a host of friends and achievements in his own right. That is the man who is mourned by those who knew him."
I am sure that he will greatly be missed. May he rest in peace.
