2. I had assumed he had a terminal illness and was in hospice at his parents' house.

The suicide update is an even more tragic detail.

3. Very sad to read.

He played in his brother's shadow, and I wonder if this contributed to his depression? What makes life unbearable....I hope I never experience it.
