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

Seeing him all the time. His facetimes & phone calls.

He would help anyone, no questions asked. He was a wonderful young man.

Peter was our gentle giant Even though he was six foot three

Peter went to the cemetery when he was 5 years old and pulled flowers Out of someone's grave to give them To me for mother's day

His very gentle heart . Making us laugh.

A beautiful and Handsome fine young Man

How I cuddled him when he was a toddler.

I will miss him because he was my only child, and how can a parent go on even living a moment of life from this? I cry every day and night

He fought strong. He fought and fought. He did!!!!

My fiance was and always will be the love of my life. He was a great guitar player and Bluegrass singer. He had a heart of gold and always made me laugh . He truly was an amazing man

When he was teaching me how to shoot his guns.

Everything. His looks, personality and love he had for his family and me

I want him to be remembered for the truly amazing man he really was

Kelly struggled for many years with his own addictions. When he lost his 2 nephews to fentanyl in 2021, it ate him up inside. Thru it all, he never lost the love and compassion he had for those he loved.

The love he had for his family.

His presence in my life.

As the son, brother, uncle and friend that he was and not the visual you might have seen.

Beautiful inside and out.

Laughing with her.

Every single thing. Every single day. We miss you so much Sissy.

To keep her name alive. To help as many others as we can.

Davie was just plain fun to be around. He was a talented hard worker, and could learn quickly when given any most tasks.
He could cause laughter in almost every situation because his laughter was so contagious.

Davie will be missed for his friendliness, kindness, and just his conversations about life. He was a son, brother, father, grandfather and much more.

Davie would want people to remember his kind heart, and how even when he was down to his last buck, he would have no issue sharing or even giving it to someone who needed it. He would want to be remembered for just being Davie.

Ryan lived until 26 years old and it still doesn’t seem real. He was the smartest, funniest, most charming person you would have ever met. Nobody is exempt from the disease of addiction. Nobody possessed what Ryan did. He was a genius at 5 years old

His smile and constant humor. Life is one strange trip.

By how you live your life today. We honor everyone on this wall by how we move every single day.

He was the best dad I could have ever had. I would do anything in my power to have him back. He always made sure me and my siblings were all okay. He always gave us everything before himself. He really did love us

I was standing on top the stove/oven with my siblings and it flipped and my dad walked in and was like”what the heck” and it was so funny he thought there was an earthquake

I will miss all the love and memories. I will miss all the times and all the love that went around with my dad.

He would like to be remembered by always loving others, and caring about others. I would like to get my dad some memorial gifts.

He was fun and had a smile that lit up a room. He fought so hard for so long. We miss him dearly.

The moment I saw him hold our son for the first time. He cried tears of joy.

His voice.

I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.

Throughout high school, Matthew was involved in soccer, track, and was part of the drum line. He enjoyed art, all different types of music, skiing, skateboarding, and hanging out with his friends. He was planning to run track in college.

We have so many fond memories of Matthew that it is hard to pick just one. We got to experience so many family vacations, sporting events, holidays, game nights, school functions, and just happy family times. We treasure all of the memories.

Matthew knew no strangers and always tried to make everybody feel welcomed wherever he went. He was kind, funny, smart, and full of life. He always made others feel better with his sweet and kind personality. He was an amazing person.

Matthew's future plans were to have a career where he would help other people. He wanted to give back after so many people helped him throughout his battle with addiction. The best way to honor his memory is to do something kind for somebody else and make their lifer a little brighter.

Ryan was a big smile and huge heart that loved everyone and everyone loved. So many people were touched by this sweet person that struggled his entire adult life with addiction, missing out on so many life moments. He was very talented; a musician, an artist, and an electrician- a jack of all trades. Always there with a smile and a hug, never afraid to tell someone he would help them or that he loved them.

A few weeks before he overdosed, he came to see me on my birthday. He stood with his arms around me, looking at the pictures on my refrigerator of him and his sister and Dad (he also had passed). I told him that I needed more pictures of him, he was always gone. He just hugged me and told me he loved me, as he always did.

His sweet smile, his hugs, his willingness to do anything to help me if he could.

I think he would want to be remembered as a kind, fun loving, genuine person that would help others.

His presence, love, and contagious laughter.

She helped everyone and accepted everyone. She would give you anything she had and always gave you her heart. She asked you how you were doing and really wanted to know. She called me "mama bear" Oh, how I would love to hear that again!

Skiing, she loved to go through the trees. She said she felt free on the mountain.

Her laughter and story telling! "Dream on little dreamer"

For her love and compassion and resilience. She fought long and hard. She did for others what she could not do for herself.

Adam passed on June 2, 2022. Fentanyl took our special boy! He was struggling with getting sober and had done so more than once! He was so strong, he loved everyone and never lost his endurance! He had an amazing smile, And such a huge heart!

My favorite memory is the last memory I have of him. He was texting me and his final message exclaimed how much he appreciated me and that he would fight to the death for me, He said "thank you Aunt Liz, for always having my back and being loyal, I hope you know I love you and I would fight to my death for you"! I said "I hope you know I do too, and I definitely would too"! Five days later he was gone..

His willingness to keep going even when he wasn't well! His passion for family and especially for his Papaw, who is my dad! I will miss his bouncy personality, his laugh though is what Ill miss the most ALWAYS!

AS SOMEONE who loved the world and only ever wanted love in return! He just needed to be HOME! HE is in heaven I have no doubt and the main PERSON he loved IS GOD! He would want his friends to always remember the happy times and to not be sad. He would also want to help kick fentanyl off the streets. He would want to have a second chance because he believed in giving second chances. He'd want his Mamaw Bonnie and Papaw Harold to always remember the love and enormous respect he has for them

Patrick lit up the room when he walked in. So full of life. Charming , handsome and caring. The exact meaning of …Only the good die young.

There are so many. He loved his grandparents so much and always went over to help them.

I miss his energy and passion for life he was always happy. And made everyone around him comfortable.

How much he loved his family and he was so proud to be a Steamfitter like his dad.

She was funny, loving and just a big sweetheart who never left a room unnoticed. She was a loyal friend til the very last day.

She loved my singing so she always made me sing her to sleep

I will miss her beautiful smile

He worked hard long hours and done a fabulous job at every job he done. We all was so proud of him. To over come his disability the way he did was a miracle in itself. With live missed and kisses from loved ones We will all love and miss you. Please donate to his parents so we may lay Hank to rest properly.

Hank wants to be remembered as a living, kind, strong man. Hank beat all the odds against him living many times. Hank loved his friends and family from his soul

She was extremely funny, outgoing and loved to talk about nearly everything. She was the niece of my friend, Katie Zehner who also has a memorial here.

Strong, independent, intelligent and loyal
