Webb's Story

David Webster "Webb" Glanton grew up on a farm right outside of Athens, Alabama. He was kind, gentle, funny, and had a larger than life personality. He loved sunkist, golf, the river, and anything that had an engine. At just 19 years old, he opened his own used car dealership called Down South Powersports. Webb had big dreams and goals for his life.

But beneath his infectious smile, Webb was fighting an addiction battle that began with a single prescription pain pill after a dental procedure. While Webb struggled with addiction and the heavy weight of PTSD following a tragic car accident, it was ultimately fentanyl that took his life on March 2nd, 2026 at just 23 years old.

The Reality of Fentanyl

it's not just 'another drug.'

Webb was a fighter; he sought help through rehab, therapy, and sheer willpower. However, fentanyl has changed the landscape of recovery. It is not just another drug. It is a poison that leaves no room for error.

It's The Great Deceiver.

Fentanyl is often hidden in other substances or pressed into fake pills, meaning one mistake is frequently the last.

It's killing our youth.

It is currently the #1 cause of death for young people in the U.S., marketed aggressively to a generation unaware of its potency.
