It is sad sad. Alcoholism is deadly. Didn’t George McGovern’s daughter freeze to death outside her home while drunk? As a parent I feel for the Koppels and anyone else who has lost a child.
 
It is absolutely shocking how many of these famous people have children who meet tragic fates.
 
For instance, in the wake of his passing, I was reading Art Linkletter's Wikipedia entry the other day, when I noticed that he had had a daughter who committed suicide.
 
And Linkletter was a very conservative Republican.

But there is something about the lives that these famous people lead - how they become so obsessed with their careers that they completely forget about raising their own children - which almost invariably seems to result in disaster for their families.
 
As an example, the two children which Ronald Reagan made with Nancy Davis grew up to be just utterly worthless human beings.
 
In fact, unless Ron Jr has a bastard child [somewhere, at some point in time], it now looks like Reagan Sr will have no biological grandchildren [Maureen is dead, and both Patty & Ron Jr's wife have barren wombs], so that, at least biologically speaking, the Reagan line is now doomed to vanish into extinction.
