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

Matt was always making people laugh and he was an amazing friend to the ones he considered his people. He gave the shirt off his back to anyone that needed it without thinking twice about it.

He would get busy doing something and while doing whatever he was doing he would be doing robotic arm dance moves and it was so funny.

His random retarded comments or just being around.

Like a good friend and amazing father and a son who tried to conquer life the best he could.

Mackenzie was a loving and beautiful person. Who loved life. And loved by anyone who knew her.

Me and her always having little innocent spats.

Her smile

By her beautiful personality.

Terry was an amazing young man, his friends called him “Everyone’s Best Friend”. Terry was loyal, loving, humorous and had a smile that lit up my world. Terry gave the best hugs and shared his heart with everyone he knew. He is greatly missed.

Terry was born , raised and died in Wisconsin. By all rights he should have been a Green Bay Packer fan, but in true Terry style his favorite football team was the Pittsburgh Steelers. Terry loved the Milwaukee Brewers, NASCAR and hockey. He was an athlete he played soccer, football, baseball and frisbee golf. He was an avid bowler and loved video games. My favorite memories of him were watching him play but I lived to see him build Lego creations with his brothers.

Terry started his life as my second child and grew up to be my favorite middle son. Terry was my son, my confidant and my friend. He was hard working and fun. I miss his beautiful blue eyes and big heart. He and I had a very sarcastic routine we practiced everyday, he was 6’5” of love and loyalty.

Terry was humble and honest. He took pride in being a little brother, a big brother and a friend. He had just become an uncle and that was his favorite role in life.

Andrew had a beautiful smile and the best laugh. He could sing, dance, and play wonderful music. But he also had a heart of gold: he cared deeply about people and had a strong curiosity to learn.

When Andrew was 12, he made a time capsule noting that his friends would remember him most for his sense of humor and always being able to find something funny. He was right! Andrew had an incredible sense of humor and was truly gifted at being able to make people laugh.

My brother wasn't just my little brother but my best friend. He was so funny and always could make you laugh. He had a smile that could light up any room.

His sense of humor

As a lover of the outdoors, and someone who fought his inner demons till the end.

Wild child, many drug arrests, would not work AA PROGR

Little kid at Christmas, visiting our home opening presents Uncle and Auntie Santa left there for her. She so loved the Cabbage Patch Kid she got.

Big and caring for her twin sons and teenage daughter

As a loving carefree girl who unfortunately became the wild child

Josh was my best friend he went many places with me made me breakfast and always swore to be the one who would care for me as I aged.

Me and him going to the movies together going out to eat and the time we went to a Toby Mac concert together.

His wonderful hugs and him always worrying about me

For his musical talent and his vast knowledge of many things he was very smart.

Hobart was always willing to help those who others shunned. He was a dedicated Father, obsessed with his 3 yr old daughter. We were true partners in life. He was a talented musician. I miss his goofy humor and infectious laugh.

Kenna was a vibrant person who was full of life and love and laughter. She brought many smiles to many faces.

Her having me sing break up songs with her to the top of our lungs n her kissing my cheek telling me she loved n missed me.

Her smile, her energy, her compassion and love for others.

Happy

Full of energy, enthusiasm, laugher and always smiling.

When he finally beat me one on one in basketball and acting like he won the nba championship.

Be able to talk about life and sports.

He definitely want to be remembered as a hard worker, very knowledgeable and brought energy to the room.

Amanda was the type that if you hated her, you still loved being around her. She got her college degree and was living in a 3 bedroom house and took care of her grandpa and her second cousin. She was an amazing. Loved music and family

I was the man she loved and the man that loved her. I had to leave cause she started using. A year latter she lost her fight. She was the woman of my dreams and I cherish all the memories. She will always be with me and a part of my life. I can’t pass anything or watch anything without thinking of her. It shattered my life, her family’s life and many loved ones. She is missed

Everything I miss my lover, and my best friend

He was a very goofy and sweet and amazing young guy that always loved anyone especially his brother and myself and also he loved his little daugther and fought very hard through this to be able to re gain his daugther back.

His Goofy and sweet personality and him always showed love and support towards mine and his brothers relationship.

his goofy and sweet and amazing personality and overall he was a fighter thru life.

by always sharing his story to others and keep his name alive.

Eddie lost his 5 year battle with addiction at 27 years old.

His smile, caring personality and his love for cars and animals.

I want Eddie to be remembered for the smart, caring man he was before the demon of addiction took over.

Teaching school

Sense of humor

Austin passed from a drug induced Homicide on June 20, 2023. He was a very bright spontaneous individual. He never failed to lighten up any room he walked into. Made friends everywhere he went. And was the most caring and loving soul taken way too soon.

There’s not just One memory that’s my favorite. They’re ALL my favorite. But if I had to choose one. It would be the time he held his nephew Cashton(mine and his brothers son) for the first time around Christmas. Cashton was a premie baby, tiny little bundle of joy who Austin was very timid to hold that early on. Watching Austin hold his nephew, interacting and feeding him once he got to be almost a year old will forever be something we all miss.

Austin will be missed by His quirky smile and his loud obnoxious but contagious Laugh.

Austin would like to be remembered by how caring and loving he was, especially too his Mom Tracy.. He was always adventurous in all natures of life. And He was definitely the life of the party and never failed to leave an impression on those he came across.

Lamont will be missed.

Worlds best dad!! Very caring and had a heart of gold!

Times we spent with his kids at the river

His laugh! His smile, his sense of humor

That he loved his children with his whole being

My beautiful daughter, Ciara, lost her battle with addiction at the age of 30. She fought for 5 years and left behind 4 children, family and friends who all loved her so very much.

My favorite memory of Ciara is when she would break out singing like she was on stage.

Her loving heart that would do anything for anyone. And her beautiful smile.

As someone who would give their last to make someone else happy.

Blake was loving, kind, smart, and had an amazing winning personality. I loved his laugh and his smile. To know him was to love him when he was not using drugs.

The last Saturday I spent with him. He looked so healthy and sounded so good.

His love for me

As a respectful member of society who loved his family dearly
