RIP, Popeye

My own theory is he passed away then she committed suicide after he passed.

Hope they both RIP

Loved him in everything he did. The Royal Tenenbaums was an underrated classic.

He was great in that one.

Its starting to get weird and the police have now started using the word 'suspicious'.....oh boy.

SANTA FE, N.M. — Actor Gene Hackman died of heart disease a full week after his wife died from hantavirus in their New Mexico hillside home, likely unaware that she was dead because he was in the advanced stages of Alzheimer’s disease, authorities revealed Friday.

Both deaths were ruled to be from natural causes, chief medical examiner Dr. Heather Jarrell said alongside state fire and health officials at a news conference.

‘‘Mr. Hackman showed evidence of advanced Alzheimer’s disease,‘’ Jarrell said. ‘’He was in a very poor state of health. He had significant heart disease, and I think ultimately that’s what resulted in his death.‘’

Authorities didn’t suspect foul play after the bodies of Hackman, 95, and Betsy Arakawa, 65, were discovered Feb 26. Immediate tests for carbon monoxide poisoning were negative.

Investigators found that the last known communication and activity from Arakawa was Feb. 11 when she visited a pharmacy, pet store and grocery before returning to their gated neighborhood that afternoon, Santa Fe County Sheriff Adan Mendoza said Friday.

Hackman’s pacemaker last showed signs of activity a week later and that he had an abnormal heart rhythm on Feb. 18., the day he likely died, Jarrell said.

Although there was no reliable way to determine the date and time when both died, all signs point to their deaths coming a week apart, Jarrell said.

‘‘It’s quite possible he was not aware she was deceased,‘’ Jarrell said.

Stranger than fiction! May they RIP.

There’s a horrible punchline about the sex being the same but the dishes were piling up but, it’s probably too soon for that.

Good lord, what a horrible way for everyone to die. CM death would have been a major blessing compared to what really happened.

I agree....

At least the old man most likely didnt know what was going on anymore. First I've heard of that virus. She was only 65 and that cant be a pleasant way out...sad indeed.
