Mourning the passing of Corey Haim


Corey Haim died on March 10, 2010 at Providence St. Joseph Medical Center in Burbank, Los Angeles. His mother called 911 when Corey's assistant witness him getting out of bed and felt to his knees with weakness. Haim's autopsy and toxicology will determine the cause of death, which is pending. Police has rule out foul play due to no evidence to suggest it.



The Toronto- born actor first debut in a commercial at age 10, and by the mid-80's he was a full pledge teen idol with accolades and a well-earned reputation. Corey Haim was best known for his roles in the 80's classics teen movies like "Lucas", "Lost Boys" and "Watchers"; Corey had numerous movies under his belt that catapulted him to stardom. In 2007, Corey did try to recapture his 15 minutes of fame once again in his short- lived reality show, "The Two Corey's" co-starring his best friend Corey Feldman. However, Corey life was ravished by substance abuse from prescription drugs and cocaine which was apparent during production. Corey did decline the offer last year to appear on the reality show, "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew". Corey made a reported 15 trips to rehab to kick the habit. The one comfort Corey had in his life for the past few years was his artwork, which allow his natural creativity to surface, after being out of the limelight. He loved to paint and found tranquility in it, whatever demons Corey Haim's was dealing with, his legacy will live on through his movies and on his canvas. I hope that the peace he try to attain in life is realized in heaven, now that our favorite lost boy is gone.
