Dear <strong>First</strong> <strong>Lady</strong> Casey DeSantis,<br />

My name is Cindy Dodds. My son Kyle Cole Dodds was poisoned by fentanyl<br />

flowing across our southern border <strong>and</strong> through USPS. As an ambassador for the<br />

<strong>Dr</strong>ug Epidemic Memorial Walls, I am asking if you would help us find a permanent<br />

location within our Capitol here in Florida for the <strong>Dr</strong>ug Epidemic Memorial Wall.<br />

There are two walls, one with photos <strong>and</strong> one with names including our beloved <strong>and</strong><br />

so missed Kyle Cole Dodds (24).<br />

Included with this letter is Kyle’s frame, <strong>and</strong> a brochure of the virtual walls, albums,<br />

<strong>and</strong> our awareness campaign. These virtual walls update automatically. It would<br />

be awesome if we could display the photos in hard copy as well. The intention is to<br />

have the wall of names projected onto a wall so that parents <strong>and</strong> loved ones can<br />

touch the name of the person lost to this horrible epidemic. All these names were<br />

victims first of Purdue Pharma (an American cartel) <strong>and</strong> many, many others. But<br />

ultimately, they are victims of Chinese <strong>and</strong> Mexican cartels, as you know.<br />

Mrs. DeSantis, we are an army of devastated moms, dads, sisters, brothers, etc.<br />

The strongest group are us moms, like you <strong>and</strong> me. We are reaching out to all our<br />

first ladies across America. Because I know you have already been involved in<br />

stopping this murder across Florida, I am reaching out to you personally for your<br />

help.<br />

Losing a son is something you cannot underst<strong>and</strong>, <strong>and</strong> I am thankful for that. Even<br />

though you try to prepare yourself for it when your child is caught in addiction, you<br />

can’t. Our Kyle is with Jesus <strong>and</strong> doing great, but we remain committed to honoring<br />

his life by saving others. Please help us with this. Education really is the best way.<br />

Last year in Orl<strong>and</strong>o, we had an art exhibit at the Museum of History of 41 loved<br />

ones lost to addiction. The artist drew pictures of all our sons/daughters. It was<br />

staggering to see <strong>and</strong> hear how it impacted the public. Some walked away in tears<br />

reading the life stories <strong>and</strong> some asked great questions <strong>and</strong> were educated. This is<br />

how I see the <strong>Dr</strong>ug Epidemic Memorial Walls going.<br />

Thank you for your time. From one mom’s heart to another…<br />

Cindy Dodds<br />
