Default Sadness . . .

apparently.

"Her happiness led her to become a Life Coach and teach other people how to become happy." I wished she followed her own advice.

Default Makes me wonder....

I dont mean to sound harsh, but i wish i knew what was going on in her life to make her want to do this, and how she did it.....i dont know her, but i am drawn to this story and this woman for some reason.....i just feel like there is a big part of this that we are not seeing or hearing.....idk, could just be me. Any more info would be appreciated.

didnt see this before i started my last post....

A life coach is like a motivational speaker who also does private sessions instructing people how to live life and be happy and make the most out of what you have, drawing from their own personal experiences.....

I hope that answers your question, also, that is my definition, not all may agree, but basically, that sums it up.

Default You are correct . . .

No children, and tortured souls can be pushed to the brink. It also states that you can donate to a cancer foundation. Maybe she had cancer and wanted to finalize her life in her own way? Just all interpretations of a long obit. I feel sorry for her either way.

I know of a happy person on the outside who took her own life. Sometimes there is just no answer.

Default Just feels.....wrong.

I feel horrible for her and the situation, not to mention the loved ones....but, it doesnt seem like the whole story is being told, seems like a whole lot is being left out. Cover up, conspiracy? Idk, foul play maybe? Did she drown herself? I am just drawn to this story, something, i dont know what, is bugging me about it, just doesnt seem right.
Maybe i'm crazy, but it just feels wrong. I hate to seem harsh, like i said, i truyly feel for this woman, and her family and friends, but i also feel "haunted" sort of, like she is saying to me, "help," "dont let this rest, get someone to listen, there is more to my story than is being said."
again, maybe i am crazy.....

We Americans typically don't discuss publicly people's reasons for suicide; perhaps it is out of respect for their surviving family, and perhaps it's because suicide is always an option for all of us at any time, and some of us are so close to ending it all that a mere nudge might be all it takes to push us over the edge.

A close friend had a son that died of a heroin overdose. She wanted to mention the way he died in the obituary. The local newspaper's would not print it.

Really? I didn't know that. I don't understand that either. Why should the papers sensor what people want to put in an obituary?

Jewish cemeteries are tough and strict with suicides; they get buried all the way in the back in the suicide section, where they have to stay for the remainder of their death. And, that's another good reason not to do it; like here in NH, there's suicides who probably did it at least in part due to their unpaid local property tax.

Who know's but maybe that's what drove this Alton suicide to do it. By the way, in her photo, she looked like a very happy and attractive woman.

Are you freakin' kidding me? You are seriously suggesting that this woman (among others) committed suicide because of unpaid property tax?

Yes ..... seriously ..... for many NH property tax payers, the local property tax bill that comes in the mail does not even get opened to look at the bill for a long time .... like weeks .... because they dread having to pay it ..... because it sometimes is arbitrary and not based on their ability to pay it .... and the people are stuck with a big problemo..... so's it could well be a contributing psychological deteriorating downward spiralling mental problem ..... what to do ..... yikes!

She just purchased a townhouse at Sundown Condos in Laconia. She had moved some personal belonging in but never ended up spending a night there. The property will be tied up now in probate for some time. Very Sad

Default Let her rest in peace

I have to say I'm surprised and disappointed by the comments in this thread. I understand that everyone has a right to be heard but for God's sake a person died here under horrible circumstances. Can't we respect the dead and not debate and speculate what might of happened? Leave it alone and let her rest in peace! Her passing should not be cause for gossip, speculation or story telling.

On another note isn't there a way to stop the 'village idiot? He has stooped to a new low here. I'm didn't think even he could be this crass.

Unhappy Wow!!

This whole thing has gotten way out of hand now.....i think i will excuse myself now, before it gets any worse.

Rest in peace poor woman. I am sure you will be missed. I hope and pray that your suffering has ended, whatever it may have been.
