I am always torn about news like this. I feel sadness as well as anger. Having lost family members to disease and accidents, it is incredibly hard. The family of those who take their own life are not only experiencing the loss of the loved one, they are haunted by "why couldn't I stop it from happening?", "could I have done more?".
It is a true tragedy for the family and wish a meaningful long term recovery for them.
To anyone out there, if you are so depressed that taking your life crosses your mind, remember that you are leaving all the sorrow and heartache you are carrying on your loved ones shoulders. Your problems may be gone, but you only transferred them to your friends and family. Get help instead.

He must have left a note or something for them to automatically rule it suicide. Why not consider accidental if found only with gunshot to chest? Could have been cleaning a gun or something else and it discharged. Has to be more to the story...

Have not heard anything about a note and of those who I've spoken with have all said the same thing...he didn't show any signs of trouble or being upset. Always smiling and always in a great mood. Many of the teammates and friends are upset because they had no idea, at all, that he was even considering doing something like this.

I'd like to say that I've never thought of taking my life, but the thing that kept me from doing so during my last 2 deployments (really rough years) was knowing what it would do to my wife. Conversely, I knew that if it was my day to go that she would be taken care of.
Sometimes if a particularly large amount of shite rains down on you, you get overwhelmed, and sometimes wonder if things would be better off without you.
I don't know what pushed him, but everyone's trigger point (pun not intended) is different.

Meant the state, not the school.
And anyways, I finally read the story, (not just the exerts people posted) and know the family and that this happened in my hometown. Bot something that normally happens in our small community. And another friend from high school just died yesterday too from an explosion at work. Crazy shite hitting little Hazel Green, AL.

We never know what battles the person beside us is fighting, nearly everybody is fighting something. All the more reason to treat everybody (your neighbor) with kindness and compassion.
