I agree, UT. Great post, rich. Equating a suicide as a gesture of strength and control? Somebody's living in DelusionLand. If he was surrounded by people like his wife maybe it DID seem like a good idea. Who knows what all they romanticized? Who was that author/actor that threw himself off the ferry in NYC a few years ago?
