FORT CARSON, Colo. -- One Fort Carson family knows firsthand the heartache and pain that accompanies a suicide.
Sheila Olden has battled with the aftermath of her husband's suicide. Sgt. 1st Class Brad Olden took his own life Feb. 1, 2010, just after arriving at the Mountain Post and left a slew of unanswered questions behind.
Brad Olden was a seasoned noncommissioned officer with 19 years of service, two deployments in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and on the brink of retirement -- so what happened for him to turn to suicide?
"Slowly and silently it built up over the years and came to a head," Sheila Olden said.
