Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Corey James La Barrie
Hi Modussiccandi, I am Corey’s mother and I want to thank you for your feedback on this page, as you can imagine I am disappointed this is up for deletion. As you can image at 25 his life was only just beginning and was sadly cut short. Corey was so inspirational to so many kids with anxiety and depression and did so much for so many and changed their lives. These are written in the 100’s of emails I have received not in the pages and pages of articles on the internet, Corey would help people anywhere at any time for hours talking to anyone that needed help and was struggling. His death made news all around the world and was on TV in Australian, American and a few other countries. Corey had so much he was about to do as he was noticed, a movie deal he will sadly never make and other amazing things he had in the pipeline. All this was taken away from him with his life cut short. He is buried at Hollywood forever cemetery; you can see the hollywood sign from his grave. He has had a foundation setup after him so funds can be raised and donated in his name. He is already on Wikipedia on Silvia page; Corey is of great important to many and deserves this page about his life not just his death.
