Shame when anyone dies but why the fuss, famous for five years, but that was 30 years ago. My first wife died aged 37 of alcohol related stuff, so I have mixed feelings. Couldn't kick the habit, even with help, hospital admissions and drugs. She became one of the 'regulars' for the ambulance service until a PE took her life. Sorry if this is a bit personal. Sober, she was great. Teacher, ex-nurse, kind and generous etc. Maybe its genetic, nature or nuture, who really knows. But to all the paramedics who treated her with kindness and professionalism - THANKS.
