The neighbors of a South Carolina family found dead in their home on March 28 are perplexed by a lack of answers as to what happened.
The Spartanburg Sheriff’s Office discovered 54-year-old former Bloomberg manager Rick Samarel, his 45-year-old therapist wife Lina Samarel, and their 9-year-old daughter lifeless in their Greer home that Friday morning following a call from a neighbor, as per a press release.
“The nature of the deaths is curious to many of us in the neighborhood,” a neighbor residing a few houses away from the family told Fox News Digital under the condition of anonymity. “Police were gone by 5:00 p.m., and family [was] in and at the house that evening.”
While the Spartanburg County Coroner’s Office identified the victims, they have not yet released a cause or manner of death.
The obituary said Samantha’s “kind spirit and loving nature touched the lives of all who knew her.”
“Her warmth and kindness will be deeply missed by her many family members and friends, whose lives she brightened with her gentle soul,” the obituary notes.

Rick’s obituary says he “lovingly shared … his passion for soccer, chess and family outings” with his wife and three children.
“Rick was well-respected and liked by his friends and fellow colleagues and his keen sense of humor was appreciated by everyone who knew him,” the obituary says.
The coroner’s office and sheriff’s office are investigating the case.
