Parents’ suicide after son death
`The parents of a man who hanged himself took their own lives after hearing of his death an inquest has heard.
Neil Powell, 27, from Bridgend, was found hanging from a tree in a field in July 2005.
Hours after being told by police, his father Robert, 56, hanged himself at home in Llandeilo and his mother Mary, 56, drowned herself at a reservoir.
The coroner said it was one of the most tragic family cases he had come across in 30 years.’
