What is going ON here I've lived on this mountain for the better part of 40 years now and over those 40 years, we MIGHT have a total of 5 deaths (that weren't natural causes, disease etc) and in just the past WEEK we've had 4 I had the suicide last Tues and today...single father and 2 of his very young children. I did not investigate this one, it was in the Navajo County Sheriffs Dept. jurisdiction.

Oh how sad! I hate to say it, but brace yourself for more before the year is out. You know how hard the holidays can be on some people, and I'm sure your population on the moutain is growing with newbies like many other areas of the country. I'm really sorry you have to see this, but glad you're there for the people who are left behind.
