Grandson of Elvis Presley has joined the 27 Club

Benjamin Keough, the grandson of Elvis Presley has committed suicide at the age of 27 (joining a long line of musical artists that died at that age, usually by drugs and/or alcohol, such as Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, and Amy Winehouse).  Apparently, he's been battling depression for years, and he sadly lost that battle. 

Shows how serious depression is.

My  thoughts go out to Lisa Marie Presley.  When she was a little girl, she lost her father.  Now she's lost her first born child.

Had no idea about this. The main story lately has been all about Naya Rivera of Glee fame, along with Kelly Preston, to a lesser extent.

May he RIP. 27 is way too young to die.

Shows how bad depression can get.  Even his own family didn't see it, until it was too late.

The 27 Club got another member

That's just sad. It'll be very hard for Lisa Marie, the mother. No parent should outlive their children.

Yeah, that's true.   She would be hit the worst by this.
