When such tragedies occur I can't help thinking of Ernest Hemingway and his well known quote, "The treatment was a success but we lost the patient."

I want to be in the class that ensures the classless society remains classless.

Was it suicide ? TSN doesnt say

Yeah everyone has been really tight lipped about it. The only thing I know is that it was termed a "sudden non-suspicious death". I supposed that could be either an overdose or a suicide. I DO know hes been battling depression off and on for a few years, and that for some reason a lot of the depression medicationes increase the risk of suicide. But depression can also lead to overdoses as well.

I question things because I am human. And call no one my father who's no closer than a stranger

Full of spirit...I see - The fatal mistake may have been in the act of taking anti-depression medications - I know of two people personally that took Prozac and killed them selves - there is no such thing as a happy pill.
