If he had been Suffering for So long a time, You, the Almighty Could have had Some mercy on Him, and You could Have made him die A natural death, Perhaps Making him die Peacefully In his sleep.....
Why did You Drive him to Such desperation That he had to Kill himself and His beloved wife, Both dying a Violent death, Not needed, That could have Been avoided.
I wrote this after reading this news of an elderly couple who died of gunshot wounds.
It was a planned murder-suicide. The man (Eric) was 71 and his wife (Pauline) was 67.
Eric was not in good health and he thought that if he died, his devoted wife wouldn't be able to live without him.
So before shooting himself, he shot her. They had been married for 49 years since 1972.
