The son of entertainer Marie Osmond, Michael Blosil, aged only 18, took his own life on Friday night, jumping off a 15-storey building. Initial reports say illegal substances or drugs hadn’t anything to do with Michael’s death, but that he was suffering from severe depression. He also left a note behind that leaves little doubt as to how isolated and alone he felt, TMZ says.

“Marie Osmond son, Michael, left a suicide note for a woman who lived in his apartment building, and shortly after she retrieved it she heard the ominous sirens below... law enforcement sources tell TMZ. We’re told Michael Blosil was supposed to hang out with the woman Friday night, but left her a text just before 9 PM, telling her he had left a note for her in his apartment,” TMZ reportss.

The note did not explicitly say he wanted to take his life but, as per investigators speaking to the paparazzi agency off the record, it left little doubt as to what he wanted to do. What it did say was enumerate the things he wanted to do for one last time. The note also mentioned he was very lonely and “unhappy,” while also saying the woman to whom it was addressed was his “only good friend in LA,” the same media outlet says.

“The note also mentioned things he would be doing for the very last time. It did not mention suicide, but law enforcement sources tell us it was clear... that is exactly what it was. The roommates, who up until that point knew nothing was wrong, and the woman became alarmed, but very shortly thereafter they heard sirens and saw emergency vehicles on the street and figured out what happened. We’re told... from the time the woman got Michael’s text to the time they heard sirens... it was a very short time span,” TMZ further says.

An autopsy on Michael is believed to have been performed yesterday, on Sunday, though, if it did, it was not made public just yet. Toxicology reports are pending, as also is a statement from Mrs. Osmond. Danny Osmond issued a statement the other day confirming the tragic news and asking fans to pray for his sister and her family during these difficult times.
