Possible suicide, apparently. The headline said nothing about heart attack. Perhaps it's been deemed a heart attack since 6:30 pm. This from the NYT online (6:25 ET): "A spokeswoman for the Lay family, Kelly L. Kimberly, confirmed reports of Mr. Lay's death but declined to discuss specifics. In a prepared statement, Ms. Kimberly said: "Ken Lay passed away early this morning in Aspen. The Lays have a very large family with whom they need to communicate. And out of respect for the family, we will release further details at a later time."
