Go visit him and be there for him during this tough time. I actually just lost a friend to suicide tonight
and it makes you wonder if maybe you just saw them that one last time things would have been different. He was just over at my house for Christmas dinner, got a new job, and life was looking up. His past is, well, questionable at best because of some bad decisions and cost himself everything. But after 3-4 years of getting things back on track you would have thought this would have been the last time he would have done this. This came as a complete shock and I'm even having a hard time typing this out right now but try and help your friend. All you can do is try if he doesn't want your help that is another thing but be his friend and get him to open up, maybe that could be the difference. Just try.
edit: I only read the first post before replying, I am seeing things have changed a bit.
