[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"passed away suddenly at home" means suicide.[/quote] No, it doesn't. Suicides don't always happen at home and passed away suddenly at home could also mean that the person died from something like a heart attack or brain aneurysm.[/quote] A friend "passed away suddenly at home" from an aneurysm. Every now and then an obituary says something like "lost her long battle with cancer". If no cause of death is specified, it's best not to jump to conclusions. It will only cause more pain to the family if they have to squash rumors. [/quote] We did not list the reason my parent died in their obit. (a terminal illness). The obit was about celebrating their life. People are nosy and want the juicy details. Most people keep health matters to themselves.[/quote]
