Maybe she and Sam's dad ran away together to start a new family?

Kidding! I have no doubt in my mind that she died just from the way the family is. As sweet as Spencer is, I think he would be a little bitter about having to raise his sister alone while his mom just left. Not in a non-children's show way but the same way you can see the anger and bitterness under Sam's surface. Was it a surprise to anyone when we found her dad left? That very much fit her personality. Neither Carly nor Spencer seem to have any personality traits of kids who were just abandoned by a parent. Plus, I don't think they are going to have it be that both Sam's dad and Carly's mom abandoned them.

I think Freddie's Dad is the wildcard. I could see it going either way with him. Either he died (and that drove Mrs. Benson off the deep end and made her terrified that something could happen to her Freddie too) or her being crazy drove him off.
