    Report says it was a suicide, wife witnessed him shooting himself. Sad.

    ^^^Just saw that...you just never know what's going on in someone's head...no telling what pushed him over the edge...maybe an argument, maybe he was diagnosed with a terminal condition, who knows?

    ...but to do it in front of your wife?

    First thing I thought of when seeing that was the Allmans "One Way Out" the body of the lyrics may have not fit Trucks current situation but say the title may have proved to be ironic. Gotta feel for the man in any case.
