Likely carbon monoxide. If you have older style smoke alarms you can pick up portable carbon monoxide detectors for a couple of bucks. It's definitely worth have them by your furnace and any gas appliances, because without it you'll likely be dead before you know it's an issue.

One of my all time favorite actors, made the characters come to life in a way that many actors cannot.

I’m more concerned about the shepherd being found dead locked in a closet

They said it wasn't immediately apparent. A backdraft with a faulty furnace could fill the house with co then clear out minutes later

Shall we start a contest? All participants agree to send fiver to whoever guesses closest scenario to actual findings. Morbid? Yes, that's the joke. I'm joking.

I'm thinking he died naturally, and she killed herself with grief.

So, the news is saying Hanta virus, which makes sense in New Mexico. My first thought, and many others, was carbon monoxide poisoning, but a simple carboxyhemoglobin test will rule that out in about 30 minutes. May take longer when the person is dead for a while.
I remember back a few decades ago when the virus was killing young boys, and the scientists couldn't figure it out. The native shamans told them that mice and little boys don't get along, and were ignored. As it turned out, the virus is spread by mice, and little boys are the most likely ones to be messing with the mice.
Sad tale, Gene Hackman was one of the greats.

I read that actually his wife died of hantavirus probably a week before he died, and he spent the week wandering around the home in state of late-alzheimer's induced confusion. Very sad indeed.
