Wow, that is awful. I don't blame you for being very upset. Was there something particular that you were talking about with him that might help explain (although not justify) his sudden unavailability to you? Did he seem at all odd on the last visit that you had with him? Were you generally getting along with him before his sudden withdrawal? I'm just trying to make some sense out of this.
So, if you're looking for advice (I don't know, maybe you're not, so then just skip this paragraph): it sounds like he's definitely not going to respond to you, or to the notes that others have left him on your behalf. If you're up for it, I would think that the only recourse that leaves you is to explain your story to whoever is in charge of his agency/practice, and tell them what you want as a result. I.e., maybe you want an explanation from him, or an apology. If he's in private practice, you could file a report with the state licensing agency (if you're in the US). At least that way you might be warning other people that this T is a bad risk. And then there is NAMI, which sometimes advocates for people in situations like this. There is probably a local chapter in your area.
You have all of my sympathy for such a sudden loss. Please let us know more.
