I did some poking around after seeing this. Apparently he was feeling unwell the night before. He actually fell that night. His housekeeper tried to persuade him to go to the ER. He decided to just go to bed. Housekeeper found him passed away the next morning. There is an investigation into his death. That means it was not a death by natural causes. Personally, I wonder if he hit his head when he fell and had a brain bleed. Also, personally, this does not sound like he intentionally did something to end his life.

Mar dhea, I saw an interview with him where they discussed him withdrawing from the public eye. He said he was a very shy person, that having to be "on" all the time wore him out. He said he was exhausted and did not want to preform any more.

EDITED TO ADD
Just checked, he was76 when he passed away. Speaking as a 70 year old, 76 is not ancient, but he was not a spring chicken either.

Una, the world is full of strange coincidences. Well is does seem odd he died the day after his birthday I suspect it's just one of those coincidences.
