Why would a man with so much going for him top him self, i think the death should be treated suspiciously considering these events.



That's only the public perception though. Suicide is rarely suspicious. No one knew what was going on behind closed doors in Gary's personal life. It's easy to hide behind a mask. There may be details that the family do not wish to be publicised. Saying that, I come from a footballing-mad family, and my dad and I feel that it's wrong that he has pages dedicated in his memory whereas a soldier may receive just a couple of short paragraphs. That's the nature of the British media sadly. I can understand both sides of the argument. For many people, Gary was an idol and role model, as was the soldier who passed away, but on a smaller scale, as Gary was better known. Any loss of life too early is a waste, but if I were a member of the soldier's family, I'd be immensely proud. Our Forces do not always receive the recognition that they deserve.
