"Based on evidence at the scene, indications are that this death appears to be a suicide," Hillsborough County Sheriff's spokeswoman Debbie Carter said. "There is no evidence to contradict that at this time." This Saturday's game between Tony Dungy's Indianapolis Colts and and the Seahawks will probably be a somber event as a result, even without Dungy's presence (he's not expected to attend.) People across the NFL offered condolences to his family Thursday. If you'd like to express your condolences, click the comments link below.
My nephew was killed less than 2 wks ago. I can only offer condolences. I do not know what it is like to lose a child - only other parents who have walked that walk understand. However, I understand the coach had a close family so - Coach - take comfort in knowing you have a close family which will help you get through this. My family will keep you and your family - including your son - in our prayers.
Dawn Grimstead said:
What a terrible shock for Mr. Dungy. I will always remember him from the days he played for the 49ers, when I had season tickets to that team. He's surely come a long way. My heart really goes out to his family. I lost a brother to suicide and have an idea what they're going through. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem, and while you never "get over it," with the help and support of friends & family you are able to get through the process and go on functioning. I send you all good wishes. You will survive this.
Becky said:
As the mother of a 19 year old young man, my heart and prayers go out to the family. I pray that the family will find peace beyond understanding by resting in the fact that God is God always, in all situations. I am praying. God bless.
Bob Sedillo said:
Dear Coach Dungy, I was very saddened to hear of your tragic loss today. I have two grown children of my own, and I cannot think of anything more devastating than what you and your family must be going through. Please know that our family and the entire Seattle community will hold you in our prayers. May God be with you and hold you and your family in His arms during this most difficult period and for all time.

Dear Coach Dungy,
My wife and I wanted to express our heartfelt condolences to you and your family. God Bless you and your family.
Debbie Carter said:
Dear Coach Dungy and family, words can't even begin to express the sorrow I feel for you. Losing any family member any time of the year is devastating, I can't even fathom what you are going through right now. My thoughts and my prayers go out to you and I truly wish there was more I could offer to comfort you during this trying time.
Steve Stuart said:

Laurel & Bill Johnson said:
We live across the bay from Seattle. We were looking forward to this game, but not so much now. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this awful time. We are parents, and cannot even imagine what you and your family are enduring. This sounds stupid and anemic in the face of this tragedy. We just hope in some small way this message will give you some tiny bit of comfort in the weeks to come.

Dear Coach Dungy and Family,
My family wishes yours all the healing love and support you need during this great loss. We all enjoy the vibrance and vitality that thrives in the game of football.

I'm confidence your faith, your strength and your guiding principles will be your shepard during these difficult days. Our prayers are with you.

I can tell you it will never go away completely, but it will get easier to live with. The support of friends and extended family have helped us a lot and I know it will help you too.
Michael Umbach said:
Dear Mr Dungy and family,
My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. I have also just lost my 22 year old son to an overdose. I do know the pain that you are feeling and that you will continue to feel. I am left with an empty hole in my soul.
I was so looking forward to watching your Colts take on our Seahawks, but now it all seems so meaningless.
It sounds like you have a strong family support group and a strong faith. You will need them to help you through this tragedy.
I am so deeply sorry for your loss.
Sincerely,
Michael Umbach
Kathy Taylor said:

Oneal Nichols said:
My own son Jack would have been 21 today, 12-22-05 if only he had not completed his own suicide 4 yrs ago at age 17. I know the pain and sorrow that must be enveloping the Dungy family right now. This sort of loss is without explanation or cure. Time eases the pain but nothing will ever remove it. And I hope it will always be there. I need to remember, always.
Jim Lawson said:
My condoloences and heart-felt sympathy are extendced to Coach Dungy and the Indianapolis team. I can only imagine the heartbreak of losing a child, and then to have it happen only days before Christmas. That has to make it doubly difficult. I will keep the Dungy Family in my thoughts and prayers.
Mickie Wilson said:
To you and your whole family, and his girlfriend I give a very heartfelt sorry. The loss must be temendous, I've never met you coach but I think you are one of the best. Keep the faith when you can find it again. And remember everyone close to you will help ease the pain. And the ones you don't know will help in prayer.
JeannieBeth Asuncion said:

God bless you all.

Sandy said:
I truely understand what you must be going through, and I really hurt for you. We nearly lost our daughter a few years ago, after a car accident, and I had a brother who took his own life, and another who almost took his own life. I know the pain of this type of loss, and all I can tell you about it is that with time the pain gets a little less. It still hurts 19 years later but time does heal. May God, family and friends help you through the worst part of your life, to date. Sandy

My family is so disturbed to hear of the loss of your son. We have 3 sons and I cannot imagine the feeling of losing a child! We offer our heartfelt condolences and prayers to you. We are big Tony Dungy fans as you have always been a class act in a sport that needs more wonderful people like you. Although it is a small consolation I hope your family can heal a little from the tremendous support and admiration we fans have for you as a coach and mentor and as a man and a father! God Bless You!

God bless Tony and his family. It is hard to lose a child anytime, but especially close to Christmas. We lost a seventeen year old daughter on December 14, 1985 in an automobile accident.
We will be watching the football game Saturday , and thinking of Tony. Coach McKay of USC always said, football is just a game. There will be other football games, but we have only one life on this earth.

To Dungy Family: I lived 68 year in the Tampa bay area and was a fan of the Bucs from the beginning. I watched when your family came to Tampa and I saw how coaching was supposed to be done. I am so sorry for your loss. I feel I know a little about how you feel. I lost my daughter when she was 19, my wife 20 days befor out 50th wedding anniversity and my son 2 years later. I would like to offer a little piece of good news. Hang in there Circle the wagons in your family and realize that every day things will get just a little tiney bit better. Some days things will back up a get worse, but in the long run they will get better. It will never be gone. to this day 50 years after my daughters death I will see something and will think Carol would have loved this. Hang it there you will survive.
