While I have the chance... The whole thing with Butch Trucks gave me this idea.  |

Allman Brothers Band drummer Butch Trucks committed suicide in front of his wife, according to multiple media reports.

The Miami Herald, citing a police report, claims that Trucks shot himself in the head with a pistol while his wife of 25-years stood nearby in their West Palm Beach, Florida, condo.
The West Palm Beach Police Department told Fox News "foul play is not suspected, and the case is still under investigation." They referred all further questions to Trucks' publicist who did not return Fox News' requests for comment.
In a 911 call obtained by the Miami Herald, a woman told the dispatcher her "husband just shot himself" and used Trucks' real first name, Claude, to identify the victim.
The caller was reportedly so distraught she could not speak in full sentences but managed to tell the dispatcher the victim was breathing.
However, the dispatcher later concluded the call with a "Signal 7," which is a code to indicate someone has died.
The Palm Beach County Medical Examiner's Office told Fox News the office "can't release anything but the name" and that autopsy results for Claude "Butch" Trucks would not be released for "weeks."
Trucks is survived by his wife, four children and four grandchildren.

Butch Trucks sounds like the name of the protagonist in a really bad trucker romance novel

Depression is hell
Good to tell people you love them always before you can't

I don't know, it just opened up so much that the people closest to me might not know how much I care.

I think it's harder for men. Guys don't normally tell their pals they love them. Girls have it easy.

When his death first came out there was a great article that interviewed him and he was saying how the record company execs tried to get the allman brothers to change their image but they judt did what they want and we're super poor but happy. Then after a couple years people just caught on and they blew up.

What an awful thing to put someone you love through. At least do it alone.
But I agree with the point of the OP. Some people never realize how much they are loved.
