Poor guy. Obvious mental issues, most likely severe depression.

Such tragic news. Suicides/Depression are huge epidemics anymore in young AND older adults. The sad part for the families is there are seldom any signs. Then it's too late.

Rick Springfield came out today (on a talk show) how he tried committing suicide just last week. Depression is a horrible disease. No matter how much money you have, if you don't have your health, you don't have anything.

I wish the suicide victims could see into the future and see what their death means to the ones left behind. It may change their mind before doing it. I had a 2nd cousin commit suicide three years ago. He had just turned 19 a couple of days before. He said he was going to see some friends and he would see his mother (my 1st cousin) later. He drove down an isolated road, pulled over, and shot himself in the head. Nobody had a clue. He was always a happy go lucky guy. Hs mother is still devastated to this day. Her life is filled with sadness. I've known a few people who have committed suicide and it's always the same. The loved ones are dealt a blow they can't get over. It angers me when I think about it.

I read about this. It was truly tragic to read about. This young man had such a bright future, and suicide is a horrible way to lose someone.
