Mia Farrow's Brother Committed Suicide
Filed under: Sad Sad
We mentioned earlier how Mia Farrow's brother, Patrick, was found dead in his art gallery in Vermont on Monday.
Police stated the situation as "suspicious," but we now know what happened to her sculptor brother.
Reports have been released that Patrick died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head!
According to the Chief Medical Examiner, "These findings are consistent with evidence found during the investigation. Mr. Farrow's wife contacted 911 upon discovering her husband unresponsive in their home."
And, sadly, the 66-year-old Patrick was found dead by his wife.
Suicide is never the answer!

Hello 
Hot Hot Hot…Or Just Plain Weird?
That's sad. I feel bad for his family. Suicide is terrible.
I have for a long time wanted to kill myself, but it is the most effed up thing you can do to those who love you. There is NO excuse, EVER, to leave your body for a family member to find. They will be ruined forever. It is the most selfish act possible.
Wait a minute, nobody knew right away that he had a self inflicted gun shot wound to the head??
So tragic!
Prayers of strength for the surviving family.

Suicide is so sad.
I don't think suicide is selfish, though. Some people don't have the will to go on, it's like they're dead inside.
But it is never the answer. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
awwwww, this is sad… what a sad time for that whole family…
They say people who kill themselves are selfish.. I can sort of see where they are coming from, BUTTTTTTT, One has to wonder, what is soo bad in their life that they can't stand to live it anymore…. and that is what makes me feel sad for them…
suicide can be the answer.
Wait…what? He was found dead in his art gallery and then unresponsive in his home?? WHAT?
Condolences to the terrific Mia and her family at this sad time.
Ditto to the person above; art gallery or his home? I don't understand.
Either way, this is really sad, and my heart goes out Mia and her family.
suicide is seriously bullshit. don't do it.
What a selfish motherfucker.
Who knows what was going on with that family. But, MISS P., suicide is never the answer. It just isn't, given all the options we have in life.
I use to live 3 houses down from this gallery and i still only live 15 minutes away from castleton. my thoughts and prayers go out to the farrow family
Great Art!!
how selfish.
but the art in the back is amazing.
Re: Smqueen –
i thought the same. perhaps the gallery is in the home?
For all of those people that say suicide is selfish…please educate yourself! if someone is willing to go to extremes as to put the light out on their life they are thinking things you can't even comprehend. yes it affects their family and loved ones but it may be putting to rest a life they can no longer live (Mr. Farrow was 66-he probably thought this through). Suicide has a horrible effect on family and loved ones; but flippant responses of those responding too quickly that ' they are selfish', have no empathy or sensitivity whatsoever. Yeah YOU.
Re: OOGLE – YOU'RE GROSS
That's the last thing you need to tell to someone who is willing to take their own life.
There have been quite a few studies that have attempted to label depression meds are junk. From personal experience, this is true. I've been referred to dozens of psychiatrists who have flung temporary happy pills at me that didn't work for major uncontrollable depression/bipolar disorder that has me contemplating suicide everyday due to a hereditary chemical imbalance.
After coming to terms with the fact that they couldn't help, you have to deal with the more permanent side effects of their medication - (for me) that including seizures and neurological disorders.
I'm sure that most of us suffering from this know that "suicide is not the answer". The answer we are really looking for is how to make it stop. The best answer I could come up for that so far is nutrition, herbs, vitamins and minerals, oils, holistic and natural medicine.
What qualifies you to claim that suicide is never the answer. ? If people no longer want to live it is their choice.It is their life, and their death, not yours to pass judgement upon.
Hard on families for sure, one of my brothers committed suicide ,but one learns to accept , in time ,why they did. Carrying on when someone does not want to is a far greater burden on everyone.
People toss cliches around about it being "selfish" obviously have been engineered to think this way without great experience or knowledge.Just trot out the accepted cliche.
So sad. Mia Farrow is such a kind lady and for her to lose her brother so soon after losing her daughter… my heart goes out to her.
Ok, let me clear some thing sup. I live in Rutland,Vermont. Which is right outside Castleton. I was extremely close to the Farrow family, best friends with Patrick's granddaughter and so on. His art gallery was his home. He lived in an old remodeled church. His gallery was downstairs and the bedrooms and living space were upstairs.
And as for not knowing about the gunshot. They obviously knew, but the scene was suspicious and there was speculation of a murder.
Patrick was an incredibly nice,caring and loving man and this is an incredible loss for the art world.
Luv 3/Mia and family♥
my uncle
went in the woods
and did the same
thing//it sucks☻
Re: peeweelover – I totally agree with you……. Like I said above… It's incredibly sad to think about someone who has commited suicide because you have to wonder what was so bad in thier life that they felt it wasn't worth living anymore, what were they going through that they didn't have the strength to get through it…. I feel very sad for these people, they must feel so alone…
p.s in this picture he looks vacant…
As a survivor of losing more than one person I love to suicide,to those of you who say that suicide is okay or can be okay or whatever….FUCK YOU. It IS the most selfish act ever,no matter how much pain you're in and it leaves many loved ones behind traumatized.
Re: SerenityFair – atleast you have a chance to live your life… this perons life is done.. over.. no more… they don't have a second chance… … so stop being selfish yourself by saying it's thier fault!
UMMM! IF HE WAS UNRESPONSIVE IN THEIR HOME, HOW'D HE END UP IN THE GALLERY? Did they live in the gallery??
Re: unt0uchablek1ss – His art gallery was his home. He lived in an old remodeled church. His gallery was downstairs and the bedrooms and living space were upstairs.
How tragic & sad…
Committing suicide does not make everyone universely selfish. My dad committed suicide when I was three because he thought my mom was going to leave him. He wasn't selfish. He was a coward. You don't know the situation of this family. Maybe he wasn't selfish at all.
Sad what ones own mind can push a person to do and then for those that came to the breaking point and managed to fight off the dark cloud - sunny skies await them again - and they come to wonder what the eff what I thinking - if you ever have a friend that needs help listen to them - no matter what the situation is EVENTUALLY EVERYTHING CHANGES - it's inevitable.
I actually live about ten minutes away from Castleton, VT (Rutland, VT). And this is definetly a big hurt around here. Such a talented man taken away from us. I have seen some of his art, which was fantastic.
And to those who say that suicide is selfish…. I once wanted to kill myself. But then I realized that I would be leaving so many people behind. But with some people, they don't realize how many and who they are leaving behind. Granted, in a way, yes. It's selfish. But when you are in such a depressed and dark place, sometimes you can't come out of it. That's why it's so important to reach out to those who seem the type. Not to ask, but to let them know that yes. They are important.

Suicide IS the answer. For you . . . Violence is the answer . . . For you.
