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

Dear First Lady Gwen Walz,
I am an ambassador for the Drug Epidemic Memorial Walls. I lost my beautiful son, Tyler, who
is forever 23. He was poisoned by fentanyl, and we remain devastated. He is so loved and so
missed. Tyler served in the United States Marine Corps, was an accomplished musician and
producer, and was the kindest and most loving person anyone in his circle has ever known.
I know you have children and grandchildren. Would you assist us in finding a permanent
location for a Drug Epidemic Memorial Wall within our Capitol? We have created two memorial
Walls. One with photos and one with names. I am including Tyler’s frame below.
These digital walls and albums update automatically. We would also like the photos displayed
in hard copy format. The wall of names can be projected on a wall so parents can touch their
loved one's name.
We would like our loved ones to be treated like victims. They were all victims of Purdue Pharma
(an American cartel) and many, many others. Now, they are victims of Chinese and the
Mexican Cartels. We are using the word “drugism” for the prejudice toward drug users - like
racism.
A group of our Minnesota moms would love to meet with you and work together to prevent this
from happening ever again.
Sincerely,
Michele Hein
