A quick tribute and shout out to my cousin Daniel Tuchalski. Danny, I think about you often and I have wished so many times that you would not have been tricked into believing that our last conversation was Anything but 100% genuine & came from the bottom of my heart! I stand by that still to this day. I just came across the Facebook messenger conversation our very last conversation from 2013 a conversation that I have searched very heavily for in messenger in pursuit of revisiting that night and how much I enjoyed being able to connect with you . Unfortunately, I found out later that you were tricked into believing that our whole conversation was used against you the next day, and unfortunately never found out the person who used it against. You actually just found our conversation on the computer and threw my name into the mix. I wish so badly that had never happened. Going backwards, doesn’t do anything for us and moving forward is often extremely tough to! Just about back that I found this message and it literally aligned with so many things regardless of when we had that conversation helps me believe that anybody were paying a tribute to this page May very well be sitting right next to you and unable to show you that sign! And if that is the case, they’re never gone, but that’s not the case as we all assume it isn’t, I hope everybody is showing this type of love before it’s too late! Could make a big difference !!! Rest easy Cuzzo!
He was a real down to earth person he definitely didn’t judge he liked his space but also liked people you knew he always had ur back if he was ur friend he’d do anything in the world for you.
My sweet little cousin that grew up with me and spent most of life making me hysterically laugh. I miss your face I miss your laughter and miss your silliness and funny talks. You always made me laugh. We were so much alike when it came to our humor and what we thought was funny. People would just sit and wonder what we were saying that had us laughing out of our seats. I wish you were here, I wish you were beside me and helping me thru my struggles right now. You were always there when I needed you and still even there when I didn’t think I needed you. You were way to young to go and I am so sad to spend this dreadful life without the one who always made it brighter. I have had regret for the introduction of people who turned to be not at all good for you. I regret that you made a choice and took a chance on something that someone showed you how to do. I hate that it was your own husband and someone you thought you could lean and depend on for protection. I hate that the one person who should have protected you did the exact opposite and basically brought you into the horrible world of addiction and then dropped you and turned his back on you when you couldn’t kick it. I hate that he watched you go into the downward spiral and was with you as you did this without even caring to what damage it would and did cause In your life. I hate that he didn’t care enough about little L.A. to have helped turn you around in the right direction so you could continue to be the wonderful mother that you were and needed to be for little L.A. I hate that he didn’t help you help yourself. I hate that I wasn’t there for you and I hate that you didn’t let me know how bad you were struggling with it. I hate that you didn’t tell me anything about how bad it had gotten even tho I had felt like I knew by how you were, how you were acting which was so far from being that sweet little cousin I grew up with.
I hate that even tho I suspected it and saw it that I didn’t take it more seriously and whole heartedly to take the time to actually talk with you about these struggles. I hate you didn’t lean on me like I wish you would have. I felt like I knew you were still using but you didn’t trust me enough to let me in on your secret or give me the opportunity to help you that I left it at that instead of forcing myself into what needed to be done to get you sober. I almost died after you left us. I tried to leave right along with you as I knew I would be lost without you. I hope to get a flying Angel visit from you soon. As I hear your voice and laugh all the time. I even sound like you when I get excited and talking fast. I think of you often and am sure that you are making the whole heavens laugh like you used to make me laugh. I know you were happy to finally see your other musketeer Kristina who Is up in the heavens with you. And I’m sure you and Kristina are up in the heavens sitting shotgun with the Lord. I am sure you and momma and Kristina are the rulers of laughville. I miss you so very much Jessie. I wish you were holding my hand thru these rough times I’ve been and still am facing. I know that your watching over me and I hope to hear your Angel laughter for my entire time on this now empty world. The world, my life, and my happiness will never be the same without you.
I love and miss you deeply.
Love your cousin
The missing Musketeer

My son. Born in 1984 -2024. Beloved and greatly missed and loved. April will be a month for me to mourn for the rest of my life.
You’re never supposed to bury your child before a parent. Hate for the dealers if fentanyl.
Cheryl Ann Millhouse, you are loved by everyone and me and your family. Your kids are grown and doing well I believe. I know you accidentally did this and I wish we found you earlier. It’s sad you passed on my birthday. Rip chance is with you.
