| Description | Former Saskatchewan member of Parliament Dave Batters has taken his own life, his family announced Tuesday.
Batters, 39, died at home Monday night, the family said in a written statement.
"The family of Dave Batters is grieving the sudden loss of their beloved husband, son and brother, who sadly chose to take his own life," the statement said.
Batters, the former Conservative MP for Palliser, left politics in 2008 after disclosing that he was battling anxiety and depression.
He didn't seek re-election in Palliser, a riding that includes Moose Jaw and part of the city of Regina. |
