Wie geht's?
Everything about the recent deaths of Gene Hackman and his wife, Betsy Arakawa, is sad and a sobering reminder about life and its responsibilities.
The news details are stark:
Gene Hackman died of natural causes about a week after his wife Betsy Arakawa, who died after she contracted a rare virus.
A New Mexico medical investigator said Hackman died from coronary artery disease, and his advanced Alzheimer's meant it was possible he was not aware his wife had died in their home several days earlier.
Dying alone like this is tragic.
I've been thinking about the circumstances a lot. Things like - who was checking on them? Did his children from a previous marriage (he had one son and two daughters: Christopher Allen, Elizabeth Jean, and Leslie Anne Hackman) not contact them regularly? If not, why not? He was 95 years old!
The duty of a child is to be there, no matter what.
Rest in peace Betsy and Gene.
Love and peace - WNP
