Such a good looking young man. So sorry.

[@elizabethharmon1216]

I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s very dangerous buying pills off the streets. A lot of times the dealer doesn’t even know they are selling drugs cut with fentanyl. Thank you for being brave and sharing your story. I show these to my children as often as I can because like you said it can happen to anyone. God bless.

[@CatherineCarr-s4f]

Please accept my deepest sympathy for the loss of your beautiful son. May you and your family find peace. Thank you for sharing Lamont's story and know this will save someone else from a fate like his. 😢 ❤.

[@written2382]

My heart aches for the families grieving the loss of their loved ones, especially those so young. Just yesterday, I spoke with my neighbors’ teenagers and their friends (all 15) about the dangers of pressed pills and fentanyl. I sincerely hope they took the message to heart. Thank you for sharing your story-it’s opened my eyes to these dangers, and I will make sure to spread the word to others.

[@JayJay32186]

It’s so important that she said not to assume your child is fine just because they’re doing well in school. I am so sorry for your loss. 💔😢

[@theobserver3175]

Deepest Condolences to Lamont's Family & Friends 💯😢❤️ I wish I could give the Mom a big hug 🙏🏾🥺

[@kriskadobermiller9293]

[@Paula-po9kx]

Thank you. I’m so sorry momma for your loss, I lost my son at 49 (not to drugs) the pain is unimaginable and never goes away. Sending prayers for peace and comfort.

[@vavva_]

I’m genuinely so sorry for your loss. May he rest in peace.

[@manichairdo9265]

Even now, you are clearly traumatised by the loss of Lamont. What a beautiful name. It's incredible that you describe this life-threatening drug, deceitful. That speaks volumes. It is a fact that Lamont died peacefully. Poignant in that he was a peacemaker. I'm convinced your experience will benefit many people who don't know what they yet don't know about that deceitful poison. Thank you, Javon. Take care. 💕💕💕

[@Mskaytee]

“This deceitful drug does not discriminate!” So true. I lost my nephew the same way..fentanyl laced marijuana. Tyfs Lamont’s story with us. Sending you and your family strength and prayers of comfort. 🙏🏽🕊️

[@leesashriber5097]

I'm so sorry for your loss. He sounds like a beautiful young man. 🕊️❤️🙏

[@bellachannell777]

I'm so sorry for your loss. May the good Lord comfort and strengthen you and your family. 🙏🏽❤️

[@intensepassion3382]

Be at peace young man, 🌹 my condolences to your Mother and Family.

[@away2964]

Lamont sounds like a great kid: doing chores, making good grades, helping his siblings, playing sports. This lethal poison can be hidden in any drug or substituted for any drug. Lamont had no idea he was taking it. He never meant to bring this terrible sorrow down on you, good and lovely mother. Thank you for telling your painful story so that others can learn from it and beware. One day, try to embrace life again, for yourself, for your husband, and above all for your other children. And so Lamont's spirit is free to soar.

[@erikaeverly5035]

My Beloved Mom, Microchimeric is a word that defines in short the process of cells from a baby that live in the mother. Often for decades and more decades. He's always with you momma. He did not suffer. It was actually a tranquil death. We will keep you uplifted on this line. ❤❤

You will see your child again, every time that you look into the mirror. He looks just like you. Wishing you love and light. ❤⭐️✨💫

[@Kimber-san]

Oh sweet mom I’m so sorry for your loss and pain. I pray that someone will be held accountable. I agree he was killed. He deserved to be here!! My heart breaks hearing this, bless you and your family ❤

[@branevans3705]

When you know your child is an addict, it's not as shocking if they pass. It's just as horrific, for sure, but not as mind-blowing as a sudden passing. My daughter was a heroin addict-thankfully and gratefully she's still alive and doing great. But while she was in active addiction, every day I'd worry if I'd ever see her again. But nowadays, these young adults who are not addicts, are just being curious or want to feel a buzz for a night. They swallow, smoke, or snort a pill not expecting it to be fentanyl and then lose their life. This must be so shocking to parents who experience this. 😢 I'm so so sorry ma, that this happened to your beautiful son. When you cried, I cried. All us moms can feel your pain and we send love to you. Rest Easy sweet Lamont 😔

[@miabutterfly2442]

My soul hurts 😢💔💔💔

[@rmarvel169]

Momma, I'm so very sorry for your precious loss of this invisible demon 💔🥹🙏🏻

[@tums2254]

This is so sad. What a handsome young man. Yes, he was murdered. Dealers are responsible for their product and this should be a strict liability issue. This man died under tragic circumstances. Youthful activities -- however reckless should not be a condemnation unto death. RIP Lamont Meyers.

[@BlackSheepbro0307]

Sorry for your loss.🙏🏾 I don’t mean any disrespect but I don’t hear any mention of a father, but this is why fathers are important🤦🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🙏🏾

[@gretchenhamlin4282]

Hello Javon , TY for telling us about your young son. We are sincerely very sorry he died from fentanyl poison .Regarding the person who sold or gave Lamont fentanyl you said , "You poisoned somebody , you committed murder , and there should be accountability." Truthful True words . Prosecutors , please charge , jurors please convict , judges please sentence these people. Please Help Give The Victims & Their Grieving Families Justice. Lamont looks wonderful in his Tux in that picture. I'm guessing it was from his Prom or a Wedding . I hope he had the time of his life. His loving Mom said fentanyl is a " Deicetful Drug , it affects everybody". Spread Awareness & See Something, Say Something. 😢 ❤

[@ddale4974]

Many prayers for these families 😢🙏
