The battle against depression – The pain after the suicide of singer Mandisa (video)

Franklin Police Department officials said Monday that no foul play is suspected in the death of Christian singer Mandisa — four days after she was found dead in her home.

Mandisa, a Grammy-winner born in Citrus Heights, California, as Mandisa Lynn Hundley, was 47 years old.

The singer died suddenly in her Franklin home and was found on Thursday. Hundley was identified by a medical examiner, police officials said.

“At this time, there is no indication the death was the result of suspicious or criminal activity,” said police spokesperson Max Winitz. 

“The Franklin Police Department send its condolences to Hundley’s family, friends, and fans.”

He did not provide a suspected cause of her death on Monday.

Initially, police only said they were working at a home that matched the address provided for the ‘American Idol’ alum on public records. 

The Media Collective talent agency that represented Hundley confirmed her death Friday. But the company provided no insight into her cause of death.

Hundley graduated from Fisk University, where she was a member of the famed Fisk University Jubilee singers, in 2000.

In 2005, Hundley appeared on “American Idol” and made it to the top nine contestants. Her career as a Christian artist bloomed from there. She released her first album, “True Beauty” 

in 2007 and debuted on the Top Christian Album charts with her first single, “Only the World.”

Hundley won best contemporary Christian Music Album for “Overcomer” at the 56th Grammy Awards in 2014.

As news of her death spread, other celebrities and people who knew Mandisa have spoken out on social media, saying her music and lyrics served as inspiration to them when they needed it.

“Mandisa’s smile was like turning on sunshine,” said singer-songwriter Amy Grant on Instagram.

Frequent collaborator TobyMac said: “I have never met an artist who is more encouraging and supportive to other artists than Mandisa.”
