Robert Morse, perhaps best known by older people for his starring role on Broadway (as well as the later movie version) in “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” and by the younger set from “Mad Men,” has died at the good old age of 90. There’s much that could be said, so I’ll just link this article:

Wow. I wonder what caused her to do all that just to take her own life? Of course it’s possible the murderer she was with killed her and staged it to look like a suicide.
Rest In Peace either way, Ms. White. :(

Compounding the tragedy, the family has revealed the her death was a suicide. :(

“Ashley Judd revealed a number of details about the death of her mother, country star Naomi Judd, in an interview with Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America. Judd said that her mother struggled with mental health. "Her brain hurt," Judd said. "It physically hurt."

Judd revealed that her mother killed herself, saying the family was very uncomfortable sharing the information, "but understand that we're in a position that if we don't say it someone else is going to."”

It’s hard to comprehend the utter loss of hope that leads to suicide, unless you have faced that monster. But things are never so bleak as they seem, and we have the ability to be far more resilient than we can believe when we are caught in the throes of that wicked cycle. The grief that envelopes those left behind is tremendous, too.

“If you or someone you know may be considering suicide, contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255 (En Español: 1-888-628-9454; Deaf and Hard of Hearing: 1-800-799-4889) or the Crisis Text Line by texting HOME to 741741.”
