Drew and I went to high school together. Drew was talented in so many things he did it was unreal. He was so athletic and smart. He was super funny. Anything Drew put 100% into he accomplished. When I use to watch videos of him and JP snowboarding he was amazing everything was so smooth. If I could see him right now I would give me a big hug and ask him if he remembered sleeping over on my birthday at warebrook. The next morning he had issues with his pancreas for the first time so I'm sure...

Please accept my heartfelt condolences for your loss. May the love of family and friends comfort you during this difficult time.

So very sorry for your loss I lost my son born in 89 in 06 but lost many friends to addiction my heart goes out to you No parent should ever have to bury their child.So if you need to contact me I would be willing to talk over coffee with you.

Thank you for including how he passed from addiction. If we had more families like yours.. willing to look past the stigma of addiction and tell others the truth... we'd be better off. I honestly believe if more people saw obituaries like your son's we'd have less people dying from addiction and maybe more people looking to get clean.
I am positive that someone reading your son's obituary will open their eyes and seek rehabilitation. Nobody wants to lose a loved one. If we can use...

I had the pleasure of working with Drew at Knight Machine and will always remember laughing until our gut bust. Drew was and always will forever be a great person.

We'll all miss you Drew !!!!!!!
