I heard he had an inoperable brain tumor.
The unfortunate aspect is his family did not get to deal with his end As the should have been permitted and the suicide voided any of his life insurance

Just heard about this on the radio this morning. Just terrible. Loved his films and feel terrible for his family.

For sure, but then it's very likely that an inoperable brain tumor is going to mess up your mind anyway. The poor guy may not have had full control of his faculties at that stage.

True, Nick. We can't begin to presume to know what was going on in Tony's head. It's a tragedy for his family, but at least the man's physical pain is over with. Regardless, God Bless... my faith frowns on suicide, but in instances like this, I'd hope God would make exceptions.
