His parents would like to share the following statement: If you are lucky enough to NOT understand addiction, and have the pleasure of casting judgement, then good for you. We hope you never have to. We hope you never see someone that you love disappear before your eyes, while standing right in front of you. We hope you never experience laying awake all night praying that the phone doesn’t ring yet hoping it does at the same time. We hope you never know the feeling of doing everything you thought was right and still watch everything go wrong. To watch your own child, fight a raging war inside his own mind every moment of everyday. We hope your child doesn’t feel unwanted or unworthy. To NEED something that they know is destroying them and will do anything for it. To give away everything and everyone that is most precious to them. To have NO answers and NO hope. We hope you never have to LOVE an addict. This was an unnecessary death. Have hope. Give hope, and most importantly seek help. Memorials may be made to the Infinity Visual and Performing Arts Program, 310 East 2nd St. Lynn Building, Suite 101, Jamestown, NY 14701.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Mason T Lange 1990 2021.
