It was shortly before 5 p.m. on Memorial Day 2007 when Trish Nelson came running out of her house at 10 Oxford Road in the village of Goshen, New York, and stood screaming in the middle of the street. Her hands were covered in blood and so was the cell phone she was holding. Just three days after having her husband Howard evaluated for potential suicide intent and declared not at risk, Trish arrived home to find him with a gunshot wound to his right temple. Their long talks about Howard's depression and pain came to an abrupt end that day when he decided he was done talking and finished with living. The end of Howard's life was the beginning of a grim, new life for his family. Trish and her grief-stricken children, twelve-year-old Trisha and fourteen-year-old Luke, faced the daunting task of rebuilding a life interrupted by the suicide of the man who had been the center of their lives. It Was No Accident is the brutally honest account of one man's suicide and the devastation he left in his wake. Beyond that, however, it is a tale of love, loss, survival, triumph and faith in God told by the people who knew and loved Howard Nelson the best - his wife and children.
