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

I am an ambassador for the <strong>Dr</strong>ug Epidemic Memorial Walls. I lost my beautiful son,<br />

Ariel Osteen to fentanyl poisoning, he will be forever 30 years old <strong>and</strong> our family is<br />

forever changed.<br />

Ari was a very happy kid who helped everyone he knew. He graduated from the<br />

University of Florida, became an EMT so he could save lives. He had the biggest<br />

heart, the most beautiful smile <strong>and</strong> he gave the best hugs! He fed the homeless <strong>and</strong><br />

sat with those that needed a listening ear. He had huge dreams.<br />

I know you have three beautiful children; Ari has two other siblings that are forever<br />

shattered by the loss of their brother, <strong>and</strong> nephews <strong>and</strong> nieces that miss him every<br />

day. This letter is to kindly ask you to assist us in finding a permanent location for a<br />

<strong>Dr</strong>ug Epidemic Memorial Wall within our Capitol.<br />

We have created two memorial walls, one with photos <strong>and</strong> one with names. I am<br />

also including the brochure of virtual memorial walls, albums, <strong>and</strong> our awareness<br />

campaign. These digital walls <strong>and</strong> albums update automatically. We would also like<br />

the photos displayed in hard copy format. The wall of names can be projected on a<br />

wall so families can touch their loved one's name.<br />

We would like our loved ones to be treated like victims. They were all victims of<br />

Purdue Pharma (an American cartel) <strong>and</strong> many others. Now, they are victims of<br />

Chinese <strong>and</strong> the Mexican Cartels.<br />

We are using the word “drugism” for the prejudice toward drug users - like racism.<br />

A group of our Florida moms would love to meet with you <strong>and</strong> work together to<br />

prevent this from<br />

happening ever again.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Michal Osteen<br />

Longwood, FL<br />
