I, too, lost someone very special to me from an accidental overdose of fentanyl. My brother Robert "Bobby" Elder. I will never forget the day the coroner knocked at my door to tell me the news that my brother had been found dead in a motel room. Just five miles away from where I live. I know that he wasn't the only one in that room. I hate believing that his so-called friends just left him there and did nothing but save themselves. The owners found him after he never checked out, answered the phone, or the door. So I don't know how long he laid there until he was found. But I know that someone knows, and they will never tell. I haven't been the same since. Losing a sibling is like losing a part of yourself. I love and miss you every day, brother. BOBBY ELDER FOREVER 52.
