Considering they had a lot of tragic circumstances in that family outside of suicide, I don’t see much changing.
Jackie, who is generally not known about, drowned as a child due to getting shocked and falling face down in water.
David had some kind of internal issue that killed him while in Japan. Possibly drug related but not confirmed as such.
Mike’s live was changed dramatically after a bout with toxic shock that spiked his temperature and left him with permanent mental and physical damage.
Chris has asthma all his life which was treated with prednisone, which left him with permanently stunted growth and very brittle bones that didn’t allow him to be a wrestler in a family full of wrestlers.
That doesn’t even go into stuff like Kerry’s foot which got amputated due to a motorcycle accident.
Not sure if all of this was the drugs, being stupid even when not zonked, or just plain bad luck, but they seemed to have a habit of things going wrong around them.

Cowboy Bill Watts is 80. Terry Funk is 75.
Kevin Von Erich is 62 which for that family is like 700.
It is a miracle any of the Von Erichs are still alive.

Sounds like it was flu or pneumonia. Started feeling bad and wouldn’t go to doctor. Sad.

He will be smiling down from heaven one day when his son is elected President of the United States
