Blosil left a note behind before taking his own life last week. He had originally madeplans to spend time with a friend on Friday night, but at the last minute, he texted her and told her about a note at his apartment.
His friend and his roommates found the note, which talked about his overall unhappiness and depression.
Blosil's friends told police that he was clean and sober at the time of his death -- but had attempted to commit suicide at least once before.
One of his friends told Us Weekly, "If you were sad, he would be the one to make you feel better. He would find a way to make you laugh. He was there if you needed anything."
Our thoughts are with Marie and the entire Osmond family.

The duo have added five shows between April 13 and 17 at the Flamingo Hotel & Casino, reports People magazine.
"These were previously unscheduled show dates, added to accommodate guests who had tickets to recently canceled shows due to the personal tragedy in the Osmond family," according to a press release.
They're set to return to the stage on Tuesday, March 9th, following funeral services for her son Michael Bryan.
"I think performing will help the healing process for her," the show's producer, Chip Lightman, recently told People magazine.
Everyone has their own way of dealing with a loss and it looks like Marie's way is to return back to work. Our condolences to the family.

As for Marie, sources tell Entertainment Tonight she is in seclusion, and "is finding solace in her faith and her family.”
Mary Hart added, "You can bet she has loving arms around her. The Osmonds are a very close-knit family and, in times of loss or tragedy, they support each other and really band together as a family, and in love."
