Jennifer Lynn Graham

(1989 - 1999)

       Hi, My name is Rachel Graham and I am 15 years old, my cousin Jen died from a heroin overdose last year. It wasn't like most Heroin overdoses you see my cousin was dating someone that was on Heroin. She didn't know it, she knew that before she went out with him that he was on it but he had promised her he was off it then, they went out for 3 long years starting when she was 17. Jen went to the college of Notre Dame of Maryland, that was a vary hard college to get good grades in and her goal was to be at the top of her class when she graduated, and when she died she was the 2nd in her class. they checked her for drugs like every 3 days and she never turned out positive. If you talked to her about drugs she was against them. But one night she went over her boyfriends house and something happened we don't know what but she died that night at her house, we believe her boyfriend gave her Heroin without her knowing it cause there was no needle marks no pills no anything, we believe he put it into her drink, but somehow she made it home that night, the next morning her Mom found her dead in her room, the terror that went through our family was unbelievable. not one of us knew how she had died, but we found out less then a week later it was Heroin the police started to investigate, they went to her boyfriend's house and found drugs, her boyfriend is now in jail. My cousin wasn't an addict but she still became a victim to Heroin, and her boyfriend is now in jail, 2 young life's ruined because of Heroin. I miss my cousin dearly and I think about her everyday, I always think about how things could have been different. Well, I love you Jen and I will see you again.
