“I also want you to know that although my son was in deep grief about his father’s untimely death from mesothelioma, his last day was a joyful one,” she wrote.
Lisa said her son was reorganizing his room and placing items around the house that day, which she believes meant that he intended to be around for a while.
There was speculation about Angus possibly being suicidal after the death of his father, however, Lisa said that her son had spoken about wanting to help family members with college – another sign that led her to believe this was not the case.
“I don’t know if or what he may have put in his body after that. I only know that he put his head on the desk where he was working on art project’s, fell asleep and didn’t wake up,” she wrote.
“We may find out that he overdosed accidentally and tragically, but it’s abundantly clear that he did not intend to check out of this world.”
Lisa asked for others to make random acts of kindness part of their daily lives to honor her son.
‘LARGE AND PROUD’
Angus’ father, Conor Hickey, was born and raised in Ireland, however, he relocated to California, where Angus was born.
Conor was a rugby star for the Ashbourne Rugby Club earlier in his life.
He later worked as a university professor throughout his life.
According to TMZ, Agnus’ dad, Conor, had stage 4 mesothelioma.
He died from fluid buildup around his heart and lungs.
He also had stage 4 cancer in his lungs and heart.
He was laid to rest in his native Ireland in late July 2023.
Conor’s wife, Lisa, wrote a heartfelt tribute that read: “Thanks to all of you for your messages about Conor’s passing.
“He would have been so honored that so many young people came to express how much they appreciated their support from him.
“Our home welcomed all our kids ‘homies.’”
She shared that around 100 people showed up at her late husband’s memorial service.
“My fella lived large and loud! His cancer moved quickly which was devastating to all who loved him, but there is comfort in the fact that his pain wasn’t prolonged,” she continued.
“He is the love of my life. He was an incredible father to his three children, and a great support to many many others as well.”
A week after his father was laid to rest, news broke that Angus passed away.
According to TMZ, Oakland Police Department responded to a 911 call at 11.30am by Angus’ mom reporting a “possible overdose.”
He was pronounced dead on the scene.
His family broke the news of the star’s passing in a statement saying: “It is with the heaviest heart that we had to say goodbye to an incredible human today.
“As an artist, a friend, a brother, and a son, Angus was special to all of us in so many ways. Last week he buried his father and intensely struggled with this loss. The only comfort we have is knowing Angus is now reunited with his dad, who was his best friend.
“Angus was open about his battle with mental health and we hope that his passing can be a reminder to others that they are not alone and should not fight this on their own in silence.”
They concluded: “We hope the world remembers him for his humor, laughter, and love for everyone. We ask for privacy at this time as we are still processing this devastating loss.”
Angus was best known for appearing on the HBO show, Euphoria
