| Read a post by Ashely Judd on instagram that her mom Naomi died. She said she was lost to mental illness which I take to mean depression and suicide. I think they were gearing up for another tour soon too. In any case, very sad for the whole family and her fans. They were country legends. |
| Her journey with depression and suicidal thoughts are well documented. So sad |
|
They just announced a tour weeks ago. So sad.

| That is terrible! What sad sad news. She’s an icon! |
| She and Wynnona were due to be inducted into the country music hall of fame tomorrow. Very sad. |
Incredibly sad. |
| I was just coming here to see if someone started a thread. So sad. |
| This family has had so much trauma, really over multiple generations and that she succumb to her wishes is deeply tragic. Thinking of all of them tonight |
| She took her own life?! |
| So sad. She looked off when they performed at the CMA awards. |
That’s the impression that her daughters’ statements make. |
Daughters statement was that she "died of the disease of mental illness", so one can only assume this is what they mean. |
This. So talented, yet still not enough. |
| Oh my, that’s so sad. I didn’t realize Naomi had depression. Before she began performing she was a nurse and had a needle stick which resulted in Hepatitis (I think). Wasn’t she remarried? I haven’t seen either of the Judd sisters in ages. |

This is really sad. i also struggle terribly with my mental health and it's a battle everyday not to give up.
My heart goes out to her family. May she RIP. |
