Stopping by to say hello my friend ...
Miss you brother |
Just watched the doc. R.I.P to you and your brother. God bless your mom for being so strong. Im still fighting my demons and addiction to oxys.All the way from canada. |
This story was heart wrenching. Maureen is a very strong woman |
To the family of Drew & Tod. I was deeply touched by the documentary and the tragic stories of these young lives. My heart goes out to the family and friends. I do hope their story will help others to seek the help and support to overcome addiction. |
I just finished watching the "Oxycontin Express" for the 10th time (at least) & my heart broke for the families of Andrew, Todd & Stephanie but ESPECIALLY Maureen, their Mother/Mother in Law. I can't put into words how one Mother can lose 2 sons & daughter in law all before their 30th birthday. I have a history of substance abuse, mainly alcohol & narcotic pain meds. I just turned 37 yesterday and I've been to 30 day rehab in Florida & was medically detoxed at least 10times since my 30th birthday. I put my family through HELL for 5 years & had a lightbulb moment & for once thought about what I had put THEM through! I don't know if I'll be able to forgive myself for being so selfish when I was actively using. I'm happy to say that I've been clean for 2 years & unfortunately got the strength by hearing about people such as your family went through. While tragic, your families courage saved my life. I am so grateful. Your family will always be in my prayers |
Some days are better than others , I went to your memorial a couple weekends ago, I'll be back
I know you're looking down on all if us!
Miss you brother !!!
See ya next weekend

I watched the Oxycontin Express last week but didnt finish it because I had to pick my kids up from school. I just watched it again today and saw that Todd passed away this year. I couldnt help but cry. These drugs have ruined my life. My husband is a drug addict and right now I dont know if he is even ok. We have an 18 yr old daughter, a 16 and 12 yr old son together. They want nothing to do with him. His pill addiction gets worse everyday and it gets worse in our area everyday. God bless Todds family and my heart goes out to you...you are and will be in my prayers. |
i saw the oxycontin express on current and can relate to tod being that i am an addict but whats really gettin me is that i saw that he died at the end of the show and looked up to see what from and realized at about the same time i believe it was march 15th i myself had a near death experience when using synthetic cannabinoids and im also 30 years old and maybe he stepped in with god and helped me. idk it sounds crazy but with all the familys loss and baby drew there i hope everything gets better and as good as it possibly can with all things considered. god bless all of you. |
It is 4:45am here in Hollywood Florida. I cant sleep... I just finished watching a few programs on pills... Specifically oxy on the streets of Broward County, South Florida and abroad. I did not know how big of a problem it is and how close to home it is. I just saw this program and it left such an impact on me that I cant sleep or stop thinking about it because of the fact that they explained how and why they lost Drew, Stephanie and at the end of the program the screen It said dedicated to Tod March 13 2012... I was like omg, are you serious, jaw just dropped... that was around 4 months ago... couldnt believe it. It was so dissapointing. I have never lost family member so I dont know what it feels... It scares me more than anything in the world. I hope I have the strength to deal with it in the future. I am sorry for your loss. Not looking back but looking into the present and the future the most important priority is baby Drew... I say that because I have a 3yo... Trust me, they are all looking down and living through her. Dont worry, be happy, take care. |
To the parkinson's family I am so sorry for your loss Tod and stephanie were great friends of mine and br was born on my birthday and I'm very sorry that you lost them |
Rip Drew, Stephanie, and Tod. Baby drew you were born on my birthday and I will never forget your parents. I have lost soooo many people to prescription overdoses but I'm finally free of active addiction today. RIP all |
You don't know me but I have been really touched by your family's story and its hits me really close to my heart..I am sorry to hear about Todd but he's in a better place with his bro now..Your family is in my prayers and I will be forever grateful to your family's story for help saving me. |
today your little brother will meet you in heaven
such a sad loss,i,still miss,you brother,and tod now too.
im sure you two are playing guitar together
stairway to heaven I can hear it now |
STILL THINKING ABOUT YOU ,GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN. |
I never met you but I feel tremendously for your family. I learned of your story from your brave mother when she told your story on a documentary The OxyContin Express. For you and all the people that have lost their lives to addiction I will give a speech at my college campus this week to inform students of such dangers. May God give your family and friends comfort and peace. |
A candle lit in your honor on the anniversary of your death. Rest in peace Drew, I hope your family is doing well.

Just wishing you peace man. I did a N.O.P.E. presentation last week with your mom. I don't get to work with her often, but it is always a blessing when I do. I feel like I have come to know you and Stephany through her.One of the things I most look forward to in addition to being reunited with my own daughter, who also died from an overdose, is getting to meet the children of all my friends that I've met through N.O.P.E.. That will be a glorious day Rest in peace Drew. |
I saw your story in the documentary "Oxycontin Express". I lost my brother Kirk on September 4, 2010 to the same evil. Eight years have passed since Drew died and now with my brother death, I notice that eight years have passed, and that nothing has been done to stop the deaths of our family members because of these pain clinics! I am outraged! I know how you feel, my prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. May Drew rest in peace. |
Drew, Hope you meet my son, Daniel Tripi in heaven. You and my son are angels now, hope you meet and become friends. |
I am so sorry for your loss. I just watched on Facebook the video of you and your son's and daughter in law. So impacting. I too lost my son in 2006 to the same demon and demons of south florida.
I hope our boys are guiding and looking down upon us . God Bless You ...we are on this journey together
Drew....watch over your brother ...sending lots of love up to you and prayers of comfort to your Loving Mom and Family

May the memory of our children, our relatives and our friends, who have passed, live on in our hearts, forever honored and memorialized. May the dreams they had and the lives they lived be remembered always, and may each heart and soul they touched, though forever changed, be healed.
