I know of 3 .
They were in the last 5 years or so.
One was a newly reinstated young man. He was Dfed for being gay and had just been reinstated. Very tragic, as he was so young and desperate to please the Borg.
The other 2 were Elders. It was such a complete shock . They were very loved and considered the nice guys. They had families. Tragic also.

I knew one, a very close friend for a long time, like a brother, but he was out of the religion when it happened. I still think about him often.

A young Sis of 19 or 20, daughter of a guy I grew up with, she turned on the motor while in the car in the garage. She was already a full time pioneer too. He and his wife had about nine or ten kids,she was the youngest, he ruled the house with an iron hand, yet, when she died, both parents had the nerve to say "we don't understand what could've happened".
