He's in a place where he doesn't suffer anymore, Captain.
I'm a suicide survivor from my teens. When I swallowed the bottle of pills when I was 17, the above was the message I told myself while I waited to die. I felt a great sense of peace knowing my troubles would be over. Thankfully I didn't take enough and i'm here today living with the horror of how close I came to ending my life.
Always be there for someone when they want to talk. You don't have to have any solutions, but being there for them with an ear can make a huge difference. People suffering need to know that someone else cares.
