The mother half of The Judds has passed away at 76. Based on the wording of her daughters' statement, there's speculation she took her own life.
A stunning and crushingly sad day for fans of real country music everywhere.

Re: Naomi Judd R.I.P.
You don't die of "the disease of mental illness".
My 14 months younger brother committed suicide October 12 2020.
He suffered from depression that got to be too much for him. But it wasn't depression that killed him it was driving his car in to a cement bridge support at 70 plus MPH without his seatbelt on.
I don't understand why people dodge the suicide word. It is what it is.
Now if there is some explanation other than suicide for dying of mental illness I will stand corrected.

Re: Naomi Judd R.I.P.
Sorry to hear about the tragic loss of your brother, Craig. My belated condolences.
I don't mean to brag, but I just put a puzzle together in 1 day and the box said 2-4 years.

Re: Naomi Judd R.I.P.
When I read the statement yesterday, I immediately thought she committed suicide also.
I was talking to my wife about this. She said she recently saw a performance with Naomi and Winona on TV and Naomi, in her words, looked like death warmed over. She added that Naomi couldn’t stand straight and was leaning on Winona to keep up.

Sorry for the loss of your brother, Craig.
I don't think "we" can understand the issues of the people battling this depth of depression. We would assume someone like Naomi Judd who has fame, wealth, etc. would be gloriously happy, but obviously not.
I googled a friend I hadn't contacted with in many years, and what came up was his 16 year old daughter committed suicide. Beautiful girl, cheerleader in HS, and knowing her parents, had to assume she was loved and had a very nice family life. But she felt the need to end her life. The story was about my friend who is trying to educate others with teens with similar issues, but it's tough to get your head around it all. Why? What goes thru these people's minds they feel there is no other choice?

Re: Naomi Judd R.I.P.
I'd also like to extend my sincere condolences to Craig on the loss of a younger brother.
As to Naomi Judd, there's an old saying -- the higher and faster the rise, the harder the fall. The whole thing is a mystery to me as well, but here's some background.
RIP
