He was always entertaining and he went to so many unusual places - and seemed to be "at home" wherever he went. I remembered the show where he revisited France with his brother, but I didn't know much about his personal life except that he had had substance abuse issues and that he had a wife and daughter. But from what I'm reading now it appears that his personal life wasn't going well and I agree with you that if that was his reason - it's unforgivable.
