I caught the same news Lilith, mummification to Betsy's hands and feet apparently. That's usually around 2 weeks in a hot and dry environment.
The dogs would have eaten her by then (Which it doesn't look like they did) and so I'm guessing Gene went about his business for a while after his wife's death and then died with his door open for whoever after a fortnight.
All speculation but the mummification does seem to indicate Betsy was dead for a long while

Yep. That's what I just read as well. I thought there was something about her being in the bathroom with one of their dogs (the one that died), and perhaps their other dogs were outside of the house which is why they didn't go for the bodies? I really don't know as the news is pretty standard and then I just occasionally read these odd little updates. I'm curious about the broad reference to "pills" being scattered around her body. Did the dog eat her meds or get to them? Did something fall and hit her on the head?
Two weeks is what was mentioned, and that they hadn't been seen for a few weeks, so someone went to check on them or else we'd still be wondering. So much information is still speculation at this point.

I just got home and logged in to see this on my feed, so I just found out.
He was such a fantastic actor. Love his works.
I'm still thinking carbon monoxide or something, especially to take out the entire family including the dog.

I hadn't seen any recent photos of him. I thought he had pretty much retired from acting and was just living his life with his wife, being comfortable and enjoying life.
I don't think he's ever been in a bad movie. Every role he took was so perfect, but I do have my favourites.
As far as him "looking bad," give the man some grace. He managed to make it a lot further in life than many people ever reach.
