He lasted one year, until he just couldnt take the pain anymore and committed suicide.

We also knew that family because we're from the same country and our community was affected by that story. We also helped with some donations. However you forgot to mention that the mother was the type of driver who never wore her seatbelt including on this occasion. Her and none of the passengers in her van had the seatbelts on. On top of it she was the one at fault because she didn't obey the stop sign, the other driver was innocent and was killed because of her. He also had a wife and a couple of children who were left behind because of this tragedy.
The husband who committed suicide obviously went through incredible hardship but he never asked or accepted any professional help. As time passed he became more and more secluded and isolated. There were lots of warning signs in his behavior and plenty of people tried to help him out by taking him to counseling. Usually a person starts to get better as time passes but he kept getting worse and more depressed.
With all due respect even before the accident he wasn’t the one wearing the pants in that relationship and wasn’t a very strong individual. The tragedy simply started him in a downward spiral that culminated with his suicide but one can’t help but wonder if had he accepted help/medication and so on he would’ve been alive today. In a way he is regarded as the guy that gave up and refused to go through life alone after the loss of his family.
