Someone made a point that the regular person doesn't have the same option to take time off and get help long after the incident. Which is valid, but the regular person might not be operating at 100%, and definitely isn't watched by millions as the go about their work.

Buying a home, Wedding day, birth of his grandkids, etc. I couldn't imagine being in the limelight, making money most people could never fathom and not have some of your family members there to see it.

Most will give you a fair bit of time off at the time of passing..and I mean OG left for a week a few months later and is back now, most jobs with benefits and/or compassion are gonna let these issues work themselves out. I understand not everybody is in that situation and that's too bad because we all should be.
