    Very very sad.Now he is no more there,but his family has to bear the loss of head of family ,and children without father.They have to burden the money.These things he forgot .For every problem there is a answer .But only take a step forwards ,ask someone known person for advice.It is not a solution to suecide ,.He should have thought about his financial status before opening a hotel.Many think opening a hotel means make money.Heartfelt sympathy to the family.
