That was my first thought as well - something went wrong with their HVAC - it happens, especially to elderly people.

Can you clarify? I never think of my HVAC as a dangerous thing - compared to say internal fireplaces.

For example - our household has forced hot water heating through pipes to radiators in each room.
However - there is a "boiler" which heats that water - it runs on natural gas.
When we moved in, I installed some air quality sensors - and noticed high levels of carbon monoxide - I was concerned, and searched and searched - and finally found that at some point, a service technician must have needed to do some testing on the output exhaust levels, so they drilled a hole in the pipe that carries that to the exterior...
It had been leaking for years before we purchased the home...

> Born in 1930, he joined the marines in the late 1940s, and decided to study acting in the late 1950s. Hackman befriended Dustin Hoffman at the Pasadena Playhouse and the two were voted “the least likely to succeed”. With various bit parts on TV and stage under his belt, Hackman made his big screen debut opposite Warren Beatty in melodrama Lilith in 1964.
RIP for them all. A hell of a career.

Apologies for impolite formating.

This is a 2 pack. There are better ones, too. If you don't have one already, don't wait another day. Hundreds of people die preventable deaths each year in the US because of this.

The only thing that makes sense is carbon monoxide poisoning. Would take out all 3 with no foul play suspected.
