One of my favorites for sure RIP.
It will be interesting to see how it actually happened as details are still slim. I’m reading possible gas leak?

I was sorry to see this in the morning newsfeed. Gene, wife and dog all dead together. There is obviously more to the story. He was a talented actor and I enjoyed his movies.

Hoosiers is in my top 10 all time faves. If the story isn't true, it ought to be. Few things better than a redemption story arc, and Hackman nailed it.

Agreed, certainly the most likely explanation.

95 years old. I had no idea. He aged well. We should all be so lucky. At least it sounds like he went peacefully.

Could be a murder/Suicide? Detectives found no sign of gas leaks or carbon monoxide, but found her in the bathroom with pills scattered around
Toxicology reports will determine much.
He deserved a better ending

He played so many great roles. Although he’s been retired for several years, his passing is a great loss. RIP and thanks for all of the great entertainment.
