The National Addiction Memorial honors the loved ones we’ve lost.

Austin loves his mama & The Lord

Great sense of humor. Not afraid of anything

The happiness he brings his Mama.

He brings laughter & Light to Everyone

Funny best dancer and an amazing dad

Watching him coach his kids in sports and cheering them on in everything they did

That he will miss every important milestone in his kids lives

That he loved his kids

My son Casey was such an extremely intelligent young man. He was so very talented and was a great artist at drawing. He won an academic scholarship to go to college and also a music scholarship. He was a classical pianist and a drummer. He loved video games. He loved me. He was the light of my life. I will never stop missing him. A big part of me is gone that nothing can ever fill. I look forward to the day that we are reunited. He was so funny. He had a wonderful sense of humor.

It’s so hard to pick one favorite memory. There are so many, but one that warms my heart so much. He lived with me the last 3 1/2 years of his life and every night he would come in my room and throw his whole body on me and hug me and kiss me and tell me he hopes I sleep well and thank you mom for letting me be here with you. I love you so much. Then 15 minutes later he would come back and do the same thing again. He would do this five or six times every night. I miss that so much. Sometimes I would get aggravated with him and say OK you’ve already told me this. You don’t have to keep doing it and now I regret that I ever said that because I could never get enough hugs and love from my son and I miss that terribly.

The way that we would joke with each other. His wonderful sense of humor. The way he made me laugh. His brilliant mind and encyclopedic knowledge of most any subject. You wanted to talk about. his beautiful piano music that would fill my house full of beautiful music. The music has died now along with him and my heart is shattered.

I think he would like to be remembered for his good heart and his encyclopedic knowledge and intelligence. His amazing talent on the piano and his love of video games and mostly his love of his family and animals.

Rob was a kind and sensitive soul with a big heart. He loved the simple things- fishing, boating, riding his Harley, spending time with friends, and being with his dog Guinness. Even through his own struggles, he was always willing to help others.

Some of my favorite memories of Rob are the simple moments- being out on the water fishing or boating, or watching how happy he was riding his Harley with the wind in his face. He was always at his best when he was surrounded by the people and things he loved. Those moments of peace and joy are the ones I hold closest to my heart.

I miss Rob’s kindness and his big heart the most. He cared deeply about the people in his life and was always there when someone needed help or support. I miss his presence, his warmth, and the way he made, me, and the people around him feel cared for.

I feel that Rob would want to be remembered as someone who cared about others and tried to help whenever he could. Despite his struggles, he had a generous spirit and a kind heart. He would want people to remember the good times, the laughter with friends, and the love he had for the people and things that meant the most to him.

Social media destroyed the future of my son and gen z. He was remarkabke in every way. Extremely intelligent, loving and a fierce protector of family, friends, and the marginalized!

my son was a very loving young father. He was more of the Mr. Mom in the relationship when his daughter was you know 0 to 2.

my son‘s intelligence, his good, looks his kind heart, his loyalty and generosity.

I would like to start a foundation in my son’s name. We have already started the org but we have not gone live and we need to incorporate. I want to create a recovery center to continue his legacy. He was definitely a protector of diversity.. with his Anglo features and wit he was able to help a lot of people.

Andy had a kind soul we were a lot a like in many ways. He loved to help people.

When I first met Andy when I was 21 that was the happiest day. All 4 siblings were together.

I will miss him for who he was a gental soul.

I would like Andy to be remembered for who he was a kind and loving person. We were both addicted to drugs I made it out Andy had a hard time he was a beautiful person drugs didn't define him the beauty in his life did. I love Andy very much ❤️

Such a big heart and beautiful soul

Can’t pick 1 favorite memory because they’re all my favorites

Smile and sense of humor

Such a family guy

He was a very loving, creative and an empathic, young man. He loved, laughed with a great zest for life and made everybody else laugh, too. He loved our extended family! He was also very smart, although contrarian, and made films and albums as the drummer of a Ska band with his high school mates. And, mostly importantly he had a big heart!

My favorite memories were when he was a boy and thankfully, I was able to take 100's of hours of film.

I just miss him not being here and seeing what kind of a man he would have been.

As a guy who could make everybody laugh and a guy who loved those most dear to him

He was diagnosed with a rare bone disease at an early age and wasn’t an addict completely by choice. He was a good father, friend, and son. God healed him divinely and one day we will meet again.

The last months of his life seeing him grow and give his children good things to remember.

Smile, laughter, love and his presence .

Saving anyone possible from addiction for Gods glory.

My daughter was an exceptional artist who loved life and the people in hers.she strive to be good at whatever she pursued . She was a loving daughter mother and friend who was 6 yrs clean at the time of her death

Our precious angel, we will miss your compassionate soul and beautiful smile

Although he could be a giant asshole, Will had an infinite heart and would give his all to anyone in need.

His big heart, sense of humor and his smile.

Will is now with his friends that he missed and with his animals that he loved so dearly.

Brandon had a way of bringing light to everyone around him even on the darkest days

His presence... his smile... laughter... hugs and I love you mom

He was always willing to help people out, doing odd jobs and other helpful tasks if needed. He was a believer in God and spent his soberity spending time w his kids, studying the bible and the teachings, he also was a master gardener.

Picking wild raspberries, fishing at provodence pond, drinking coffee and sitting on the porch just chatting about our lives, and the time we went to the dunes in Michigan.

Everything, gone too soon.

Hard working, charismatic, and talented.

He was my first love and father of my children, he was a social butterfly he could talk to anyone and cared about everyone. He loved his family with every being in his body.

When he would sing to me .

His eyes and everything .

Propped up by a juke box at a bar .

The light in a dim room. The brightest star in the sky. TASHA could turn anyones frown to a smile and make the most angry person laugh. She was a firecracker for sure. Tasha was most definitely a rare gem. The biggest heart, most contagious laugh.

The omeba song her and I wrote about Carla!

Her laugh, she had the most contagious laugh, it could make anyone laugh no matter their mood

Ben genuinely loved the outdoors, he enjoyed the beach, boating, skiing, and walking his beloved dog James. Ben was a charismatic storyteller and could light up an entire room, those who knew him will forever cherish a story he told. He was a talented craftsman who took immense pride in his work. He was sensitive and kind, he loved his family deeply and found joy in all the little gifts life provided.

She was a beautiful person. She loved hard and gave freely. She would walk the MILE with you.

My Favorite memory of my mother would be the last time we were together, I had the opportunity to take her to the concert of her dreams. She enjoyed watching Chaka Khan, Stephanie Mills, Gladys Knight, and Patti Labelle. She had a wonderful time. She was singing and enjoying every moment. If I could do it all over again, I would in a heart beat.

I will miss my mothers laugh, her talks, and her hugs and kisses. My Pretty Lady!

I would love my mother to be remembered for her kindness and love she gave so freely. I would like her to also be remembered for her unmatched strength and resilience.

my baby brother mom try to get me to say your name and i could not i would call you brother and finally i hollered no "Bubba" and it stuck.

The time you and Asher bake me cake for my birthday.
