NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE: Larry Strickland revealed new insight into late wife Naomi Judd's final months before she died by suicide in April, one day before she was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame. While pondering on his late wife's death, the 76-year-old gospel singer revealed that she was seeing "several therapists" and that "her energy level had gotten really low."
"It was a very chaotic, hectic, hectic time," Strickland, 76, told People on December 14. "It was extremely hard. She had several therapists that she was seeing, and her energy level had gotten really low. She was getting really weak." In his efforts to assist Naomi, Strickland acknowledged that he "might have overdone it." “I was trying to get her to eat. I was trying to get her to exercise. I handled her medications and had to make sure she had what she needed. I was trying every way I could," he recalled.
