Slipped Away

Overview

Steve Tarpinian died by suicide on March 15, 2015. He was a beloved coach, swimmer, entrepreneur, friend and companion. The video attempts to show that things are not always as they seem even though many thought Steve "had it all" (handsome, athletic, brilliant) . As narrator, I tell how I was guilty of propagating the stigma of suicide. Other voices speak of Steve's positive impact on others.
