The purple heart is a symbol of addiction and overdose. It's a sacred heart, which represents the Trinity... The roses are from her tattoo. "Always & Forever" was her favorite saying. And, the overall wackiness/ craziness represents Trinity to me. 💜💜💜 #OnePillCanKill

Trinity’s death serves as an example of how prevalent accidental overdoses have become within the average American household.

@ChrisVanHollen Thank you very much for sharing Trinity's story, Senator Van Hollen. I'll be reaching out soon to discuss the awareness and advocacy campaign that I am planning. Trinity Viola Ripley did not die in vane and her mom and I will help others where we can. #OnePillCanKill 💜💜💜
