One of the only people I was proud to call my friend, and most recently co- worker as well. Always will think of him more as a little brother than anything else. Smart as a whip and hard working young man. Was fortunate enough to be able to spend alot of time with him these last two months and am absolutely grateful for it! Proud of the progress you were making and will always miss you lil bro!!

As a parent, my heart and thoughts are with you during this very sad time. Please know that you are not alone in this tragic loss of life. I have a son the same age, who struggles with addiction, and please know you could not have saved him, only love him, respect him, for who he was, to so many people. He embraced life and sadly got caught up in this disease, that ruins lives, and takes our loved ones from us.
Just know you are not alone and help is available to help understand the magnitude of this horrific addiction, and to help others speak out about this epidemic :(
