The family are completely denying he was depressed or that his death was intentional. It’s bad form to have a bunch of young kids think their hero ‘topped’ himself when it’s clearly being denied.

If the poor b*gger had a few drinks to relax, sat on the railing and lost his balance, it really is a lousy thing to be spreading untruths. More respect for him and his family, and fewer made-up embellishments at times like this please.
