Yesterday evening we attended the funeral of our neighbor, dead at only 26 years old from a drugs overdose. He lived with his grandparents and mother - really good, hard-working, decent people. It's heartbreaking seeing what this epidemic can do. |

Sorry to hear that. Heroin? |
| As a good person, I implore you to do as I, a good person, do. Be good. Do NOT be bad. If you see bad, end bad. End it in yourself, and end it in others. By any means necessary, the good must conquer the bad. Good people know this. Do you know this? Are you good? | |

Sorry to hear that. Just curous, D'Oh, if by your obsevation the behavior of the deceased young man ever betrayed that fact that he was having substance abuse problem before his demise. |

Fentanyl. Ax, it was clear that something wasn't right, but we didn't know what it was. I don't really want to go into too much detail here. |

Sorry to hear that. I've known people who did that, it always seems like such a waste. |

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy | |

From what I can understand, the street stuff has killed many people across the country. Knowing the dangers, I don't know why people go there. |

+1 This hits your whole family when it's so close to home. Your kids will be affected, especially because he was so young. So sad for all of you. |
