After four months of sobriety, he was gone to one moment of weakness in his attempt<br />

to rest <strong>and</strong> relieve the scratch within his brain that haunted him for so long. The<br />

insomnia, the stress, the pressure; it all consumed him. And the relief that he thought<br />

could be found in that pill would seal his fate <strong>and</strong> forever change everything.<br />

Tucker took one Percocet pill he bought on Instagram. After Tucker’s death, I became<br />

passionate about fentanyl education. The more I’ve learned about this crisis has<br />

grown into something much deeper; a mission to spread awareness, influence<br />

change, <strong>and</strong> save our future generations! A single use of these life-altering, illicit drugs<br />

that are devastating our communities can at best create a strong addiction, <strong>and</strong> at<br />

worst, take lives. I started the TXAF- Texas Against Fentanyl to be able to do this. This<br />

memorial wall will help us to bring awareness to the drug epidemic that is happening<br />

right in our city <strong>and</strong> state.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Stefanie Tucker, Mother of Tucker Charles Roe, Forever 19<br />
