During a break in filming due to a strong rain storm, Nance was on the phone with his wife, Kelly Van Dyke (daughter of actor Jerry Van Dyke ). Nance was breaking up with her because he felt her continued Drug Abuse was threatening his own Sobriety . Kelly told Nance that she would commit suicide if he hung up the phone. Suddenly, without warning, Nance's phone line went dead due to the storm. Nance found out later from the police that she had subsequently Hung Herself , presumably because she thought he had hung up on her.
