How can tragedies such as the deaths of the Meeks and Lupoe family be prevented?

Mark Meeks and his family were found dead in their home on January 28, 2009. Police believe he shot his family and then killed himself. A few days earlier, Ervin Antonio Lupoe and his family were found dead under similar circumstances. How can we prevent tragedies like this?

While I can't begin to comprehend the individual situations of the Meeks and Lupoe families (and so I won't even try), I do think that it is important for companies to offer substantial mental health support to people that they are letting go or laying off. Getting laid off from a job can be a traumatic experience and it is the responsiblity of the employer (in my opinion) to help the people they lay off make that transition smoothly.
