Narcotics Anonymous Memorial Page

11/30/2025

This disease is fierce, and every one of us knows what it can take. Remembering those who’ve passed isn’t about putting anyone on a pedestal. It’s about acknowledging their impact, their lessons, and the way their stories still help us stay clean one more day.

If you’ve lost a friend, sponsor, or someone in the fellowship who changed your life, you’re welcome to share their story, photos, or memories. Start a new post for a new memorial, and others can add to it. Full names after passing are fine unless family or close friends ask otherwise — we use common sense and compassion.

My hope is that this page becomes more than a place to grieve. Let it also teach us, remind us, and strengthen us. Every story matters. Every life has value. And none of us do this alone.

24 hours at a time — and for those who came before us, we keep going. 💙

I don't know why anyone would do this to a memorial site. Shame on you all. So many will not get the help they were looking for thanks to you all filling it with ads and such. This was a site to pay respects to the loved ones of the deceased. I was so proud of this site and now I can't even fix it. 😭

I hope you never need to post on this page but if you do it's nice to share with others pain shared is pain lessened
Thank you
