Andrew Koenig Dead: Growing Pains Actor Commits Suicide, Body Found in Vancouver Park

Andrew Koenig It’s a sad day in Hollywood once again as reports have confirmed that Growing Pains star Andrew Koenig has died after committing suicide.

Koenig’s parents were desperately trying to find their son, who had been missing since Valentine’s Day.

Many believed that Koenig, 41, had moved to Vancouver, Canada to start over after battling depression for many years. His body was found in a Vancouver park today.

Koenig is just one of many child stars who’s life ultimately ended in suicide. During a press conference today, Andrew’s parents tried to help others in similar situations to their son’s by insisting there are a lot of people who care. It was at the press conference that Koenig's father confirmed his son had taken his own life.

This is a truly sad situation and our heart goes out to Koenig’s parents and friends.
