From parents
"Our precious son, Cory Wiegand, 34, struggled for years with depression, anxiety and panic attacks until it overwhelmed him and took his life in December 2017. He had a bigger-than-life personality and we miss him terribly. We hope he has found the peace that eluded him on Earth. Since his death, our family decided to talk openly, shed light and reduce the stigma around mental illness and suicide. To all of you struggling, it'll get better. You are not alone."
