So sad.  If only someone would have listened.

Unfortunately, Mike had many serious family issues throughout his life, that even most of his close friends were not aware of.  I think the problems and heartaches kept building upon each other over the years, to a point where he had enough.  He was a good and compassionate person.  I hope he is at peace now.
