Sang at his farewell concert, raised $190 million for childrens charity. Traveled to Switzerland and offed himself before parkinsons ravaged him.

An aristocratic death

Doesn't Britain now have assisted dying? Why would he go to Switzerland for that?

They passed a law introducing it in a few years' time. There's a statutory system of death panels that needs to be implemented.
