In a statement that was released by the sister of Sam Sarpong, a model who makes up this list of celebrities who took their own lives, June Sarpong pleads with people who have suicidal thoughts, or just about anybody who is troubled, to talk about it, with someone.

There is no doubt the magnitude of thoughts that go through the minds of people before they dare contemplate the idea of taking their own lives.

Regular people and famous people alike go through various phases of thoughts that have been suicidal often. While quite a number of these people have been able to overcome the strong urge to pull through with killing themselves, not so many others have been so tough or lucky about it.
