What happened to Reid Bricker? On Oct. 24, he vanished. Here, a timeline of his life - with photos provided by his family
He was a suburban, middle-class, hockey-playing boy next door. Then, Reid Bricker grew up to be a talented sculptor.
He had a studio in Winnipeg's Exchange District and people were in awe of his talent.
But on October 24, he vanished. As soon as the news hit, the whole city discovered he'd been living with depression.
Bricker's story is the kind that plays out in many communities across the country - but usually in hushed voices and behind closed doors.
According to Bricker's mom, Bonnie, his own words sum it up.
"I'm standing on one side of thick glass. And I'm looking through the glass and I see everybody I know living a normal life. And I think - well I can do that. All I need to do is get through this glass..." - Reid Bricker
