CHICAGO (WLS) -- If you or someone you know may be experiencing a mental health crisis, call or text the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline at 988.

It's a walk no family ever wants to take, but for two sisters, each step is filled with purpose.

After losing their brother to suicide a year and a half ago, they're now turning heartbreak into hope and are determined to make sure no other family suffers the same loss.

Sister Elizabeth and Katherine Woidat share the grief with their mother Colette.

Will was the youngest and the only boy of the family.

He grew up loving baseball, different kinds of music and had a great sense of humor.

"Just a well-rounded kind, caring person who struggled with mental health throughout his life and we knew that and he was very open about that," Elizabeth said.
