Gene Hackman and his wife Betsy Arakawa were discovered deceased in their Santa Fe home, alongside their dog. Betsy had not contacted her mother, Yoshie Feaster, suffering from dementia, since last October, raising concerns. Feaster's housekeeper revealed that the elderly woman was informed of the deaths but quickly forgot due to her condition. Sheriff Adan Mendoza stated that Hackman likely passed away around February 17, corroborated by a pacemaker event. The couple’s tragic end highlights the impact of disconnected family ties in their final days.
"Betsy hadn't called her mother in months. She usually called every one or two months. Last time she called was October. We were thinking, what happened?"
"She talked to a New Mexico policeman the other day. But she has dementia so she forgot already. I feel so sorry for her."
"According to the pathologist, I think it's a good assumption that was his last day of life."
