USA First Lady Dr. Jill Biden and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff

Dear First Lady De Santis,
I am an Ambassador for the Drug Epidemic Memorial Wall and the Florida State Lead.
Sadly, I am compelled to reach out to you as a mother and a citizen of the state of Florida.
I appreciate the time you are taking to read this letter in full.
My son is Chason Sloane Reynolds Forever27, as of 11/20/2021. He was poisoned by a
drug I had no knowledge of called fentanyl. I know it only too well now in 2023. Chason’s
passing was unexpected and has torn the hearts of his family and anyone that knew him
into a million pieces that could never be restored. I have in my possession many letters I
saved throughout the years from our Senator Don Gaetz congratulating Chason on his
many academic achievements, his leadership, and his representation of Okaloosa County
in our Panhandle. The letters were encouragement for future endeavors and personally
expressed his offer to help in any way, if needed.
Chason made his own way and graduated with a few degrees. He chose Chemical
Engineering at Lockheed Martin and loved processing materials for our US Military Aircraft
specifically F-35 and C-130.
I became involved with the Drug Epidemic Memorial Wall not long after his passing.
Chason’s picture was recognized along with the victims that left their loved ones before
him. That was huge for me, my son was not forgotten. I am forever grateful for the people
that made that happen. I was not expecting this drug epidemic to get to the level it has, so
I am concerned for the families that do not have a special place to honor their child that
was poisoned.
I wanted to contact you, as the First Lady of our state of Florida, for a plea for help to the
Drug Epidemic Memorial Wall so the victims of our state could see their lost loved one
was not forgotten. This is Chason’s voice, and I am so proud of him for he never gave up
until he completed his mission 100 percent, he was driven. I am his mother. Our family is
lost, what happened? We will never know. What I do know is that at the very least we can
do is ease some pain and show their beautiful faces on a Memorial Wall somewhere.
If you could please help the Drug Epidemic Memorial Wall, make this happen for our state
of Florida, I know my boy would be so proud. That is just who he was, and he loved his
home state.
Thank you for your consideration.
Respectfully,
Denise Reynolds, FL State Lead
