I watched him for 10 minutes after the live stream began. He seemed fine yesterday, and I didn’t know he was unwell. He had bought a new phone the day before. His suicide is a mystery to all of us. He is survived by his brother, sister-in-law, and niece. His parents passed away when he was very young, according to the relative.
