The Koch family pictured in 2024. From left: Hudson, 17, Jeremy, 41, Asher, 14 and Bailey, 39. The family, posing for a portrait outside their home near Eustis on Jan. 26, 2024, has long struggled with mental health issues. The family had found healing by sharing their story online through a Facebook page it created in 2014. Since then, Anchoring Hope for Mental Health has added more than 10,000 followers who routinely share their own stories of mental health. Chris Bowling
