Karen wrote: The death certificate said she died of an accidental gun shot
round in the head. The death was at 6 a.m. The information was provided by
Ermon Bentley, Sam's brother. Alma said that Lona pulled a shotgun out of
the closet and it went off killing her. The part I didn't get on the death
certificate was that it was marked as a suicide. Accidental I can buy, but I
don't understand a two year old having "suicide" on their death certificate
