Dear <strong>First</strong> <strong>Lady</strong> Teresa Parson,<br />

On April 15, 2020, I performed CPR <strong>and</strong> administered Narcan five times on my oldest<br />

brother, Justin McLoud, who died in my arms at the age of 32. He was ten years older<br />

than I am, <strong>and</strong> he was my hero <strong>and</strong> my mentor. I've been haunted by that night every<br />

day since the emergency personnel called his time of death at 12:05 a.m. on April 16,<br />

2020.<br />

Ma'am, I have since watched my mom deal with her grief <strong>and</strong> have done my best to help<br />

her by being strong for her <strong>and</strong> keep my grief to myself.<br />

It is my hope that you can assist with awareness for our State of Missouri <strong>and</strong> help my<br />

mom <strong>and</strong> the many other families in our state have a memorial for their loved ones.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Michael Patrick Murphy - Justin's brother; forever 32<br />

Cedar Hill, Missouri<br />
