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

He gave the best hugs. He was the most loving, forgiving son. He was brilliant . He loved Brougham cars, he was a friend to everyone he met

His smile and his hugs. He was 6 foot 3 and seem to envelop you in his hugs.

His smile, forgiving nature and easygoing ways

His forgiveness and love

Carmen was the best sister and friend. Would do anything for anyone, no matter the cost.

Her infectious smile and gentle nature.

For her great hair, and big heart.

Zach was a great kid. He loved family and Science. He worked hard to become an engineer and loved his career. He was creative and a great writer. If he hadn't gotten ill from addiction, he would’ve been the best paper engineer ever.

I loved to see him carefree, while on vacations and also at his favorite internship in California, where he planned to work.

I will miss his smile, his caring heart, and his lifelong thirst for scientific knowledge.

I think he would like to be remembered for his kind nature and his love for science.

I don't remember much of him but what I know is he was an amazing person and loved his family alot also was a huge music fan

I would like eric to be remembered for who he was not for how he passed. We will remember his big heart and his voice

Keith was a kind person who loved his family, friends,pets and God.

We rented a boat and Keith had so much fun driving it. He looked so happy. It was a special day.

I miss going on road trips with him and listening to music.

A kind person with a big heart.

He was the best he was so kind and cared about everyone always willing to help in anyway possible. He was a good friend, he was so stubborn and loved so hard he was great

Watching Maury and makeing fun of how dramatic people were and when I'd ask for a soda and he'd almost get mad that I was asking

His hugs, holding his hand and his smile

As someone who over came so much hurt and issues in they're life and came out a good person a great person

She was beautiful, caring and wonderfully artistic.

Nikki, myself and her daughter's trip to Florida.

Her smile, laughter and her compassion.

Being the best mother she could be.

She was amazing with children and the elderly. She was loyal and forgiving to a fault. She lived and loved fully - friends and family

She was a grown woman and got down in the mud with my one year old daughter to dig worms. She made up a very creative worm family story that enthralled my daughter.

I will miss most hearing her end every conversation with I love you.

She would want to be remembered as a wonderful loving generous aunt, a beautiful woman who loved her family. She was proud of her years of sobriety and as a Woman’s Outreach Liasion and Sober Living House Manager. She was proud of every woman who reached sobriety.

My first child, I carried 9.5 months and had 28 yrs with his beautiful smile, his laugh, and the love he had for all.

His laugh, sense of humor, and his smile.

A good young man who had so many demons he did not want anyone to know about.

She was hardworking, willing to help anyone that needed it, and had a soft spot for any animal. She loved fiercely, always told the blunt, honest truth, and believed in second chances.

She loved holidays, in particular the sweets. We baked so many cookies. Even when she stopped baking with me, she was always excited to eat her favorites.

Her hugs and her laugh. Hearing her say "I love you my baby".

For the fun & laughter, for her good work ethic, her strength & generosity. The way she loved babies & animals, her sailor vocabulary & how she made people feel loved.

Jesse was a happy outgoing kid. He was our only child. He got a job at 17 and worked till he died. His daughter Mia was the most important thing in his life!

When Jesse showed me his daughter Mia when she was born! I’ve never seen him more loving!

Him not getting to see his daughter grow up. She was only 2 when he died!

Friendly, outgoing and loyal to the end …. Had plans to become a vet to help animals, wanted to be a mom and believed in standing up for herself.

Just the other day I remembered having a party where she started this rolling down the hill with all the other kids and laughing so hard for so long she could barely breathe.

Her laughter and hearing her call me mama …

She wanted, had, and did give so much of herself … and all of us that knew her will always remember that.

Her contagious laughter and kind heart

My husband and soulmate. Cherished his son. Loved all his brothers and sisters and parents. Gave his all to each and every one of us. We miss him still.

Showing off his son saying," My son, my son." AND "Walk this way!" while doing his Groucho walk.

Watching him dote over his son

A good brother, son, husband, and father that loved them ALL so very much

Justin was a very hard worker. He loved to make you laugh. Always wanting to fit in. We adopted a little boy that needed to be loved. To have parents that showed him he was wanted. He was so easy for us to love him. And proud to be his parents.

Justin was funny & loved to make you laugh. He loved & was proud of the family. He was such a good person. He had to fight most of his life. 1st fight the rejection of his biological parents. 2nd fight his addiction from day one, you see Justin was born with fetal alcohol syndrome.

I miss his smile, but mostly hearing him calling me "ma".

We will love & miss Justin till the day we meet again at the heavenly gates.

My Brother was the bravest Man I ever met. He was my Big Brother my ONLY brother. He always was willing to help someone out. And he was always there whenever I needed him regardless of what we was going through. He was someone I could count on.

Everyday I spent with my brother rather it was good or bad was a favorite memory with my Brother. I cherish everyday we had together

he never gave up on me no matter what he was always there I always knew with Him here I always had someone no matter what. He always had my back and I knew I always was okay and never alone.

Someone who was brave. Never showed a sign of fear. Someone who never backed down always stood his ground

Union electrician, proud Father, Always Laughing, always willing to lend a hand to anyone who needed it.

The day his son was born. He looked at Landon and said "This is your Grandmother, she will always have your back no matter what."

His smile, his laugh

As a hard worker who loved his son and his childhood sweetheart girlfriend of 16 years.

Mandy was an awesome person, always smiling and gave all of herself in everything she did.She made sure to make you smile no matter how bad your day was going.

When she would call me the 1st thing I heard was "SIS" or "SISTER ❤️

Hearing her tell me she loves me and the bond she had with my kids,nephew, niece and grandsons

As a beautiful person who always gave all of herself in everything she did, she loved with her whole heart and was always their for everyone she came in contact with.
