Possibly a heart attack or brain bleed of some sort? Those are the most common “it happened suddenly” natural causes.

My wife and I were passing by Ruffino’s restaurant this afternoon and I mentioned that the owner of the place was Ruffin Rodrigue (an ex LSU player and still a huge fan). We got back and I saw the news. Wow he was still so young too. Sad day!
