I needed to get back to work and Id drive them crazy getting up every couple hours and putting my ears to their mouth to make sure they were breathing. I have never known Mike to lie and I knew him a long time. She was having a harder time this time and told him to take her to Capital Hills to get drugs he said, No! But he never said so outright. I wish she could of figured it out before it was too late but the truth is.. very few do but the ones who can are super humans and should be extremely proud and share their stories of hope with the ones who havent gotten there yet. Demri Parrott was born on 22 February 1969 in Bremerton, Washington, USA. That Koa story has been particularly perplexing and I never could figure out exactly how it fit in. It was copied and posted to several different places. Xana. Dear Barbara, thanks so so much for this post. Rosheen and Demri RIP Rosheen Raugi June 19th 1997 Rosheen was my best friend. She had affairs with other men and women, he had his own affairs with women. He seemed to think that because he never shot heroin he was better than Layne. I love this site and thanks Barbara for all the work you put into it. She is thanked in the liner notes of Facelift, which was released on August 1990. We tried to before but couldnt really connect with Nancy- too much focus on Laynes addiction and Heroin, and yknow there was a lot more to those times than just that. Barbara you are right on that they suffered from a fatal disease- and also right that drugs arent worth dabbling in. Just curious, why isnt Rosheen amongst the loved ones mentioned in Demris obituary? Take care, are you Barbara, sure that your friend Rosheen died in 1997? David de Sola writes in his biography of Alice in Chains: They had chosen the place called Kiana Lodge on Bainbridge Island [Kitsap County, Washington] as the wedding venue. Demri did pick out a dress, and Alice in Chains band member Mike Starr said he was going to be best man at Layne and Demris wedding.. Its kinda surreal to read some of these stories from people who were actually there. It is such a sad situation. I know it can be a struggle to help drug addicts. Despite never getting too involved, she is still my alpha and omega, my joy and sorrow, my beginning and my end. Dear Susan, Bless you. I just had to say it. Because that is not my story it is theirs.. even if I was a part of their story and they a part of mine. How you doing Jacqueline? Layne Staley's Haunting Wedding That Never Was Will Break Your Heart What do I have to do? Hope you write that book about the two of them and/or those times! Barbara you are right on that they suffered from a fatal disease- and also right that drugs arent worth dabbling in. I paid a professional hat blocker a lot of money to help me with the final construction, but I bought all the fabric and designed them, I dont even know who Rachel is. Demri always and forever a wild wood pixie. Layne apparently adored her; he would never talk badly about her and apparently it was the same with her. A google search for Demri and Layne brought me here at last. ciao sorry for my english I hope to be understood, I wanted to participate more and share with many of you but as I said I do not know the English language, thank you barbara (admin) and his friend Darim you for sharing your stories . He thought Demri could see him from heaven so it didnt want to upset her. Yes, she was so beautiful, and the love of his life. They were less like brothers than like a weird married couple. Most heroin addicts who manage to get clean.. will also eventually relapse. It was YOUR take on Demri and it made me think about my take on them as well. She was only 27. They were freaked out by it all and didnt understand it. My daughter was actually a big reason why I fell into darkness because her mom was making my life miserable and it made me feel absolutely worthless and then I would get high bc then I wouldnt think about it. If people wanted to not just voice their opinion and get their hands dirty they could have, they chose not to and got jealous of the ones that did. Blessings to each of you! Hope Im making sense. Stop!! Why dont you read my other posts? I have seen people/myself go from great people to completely changed. Why? I remember sitting in my room in Iceland in the early 90s, listening to all the grunge bands thinking Man..Id like to be able to live in the smack dab middle of all this madness, be chilling in Seattle with likeminded folks. When she struggled with addiction she ended up homeless, often couch surfing from place to place and staying with different friends and family before moving on, and carrying most of her valuable things in her suitcase. The sad parts of all of our lives are the MOST important cautionary tales on this website.. written for someone who needs to hear it or some kid or young adult who thinks they just wanna try heroin someday Do not do it! Demri Lara Parrott Murphy (February 22nd 1969 - October 29th 1996) was an American model, artist, and muse, and an amateur actress, girlfriend and later fiancee of Alice in Chains singer Layne Staley. I have the second version and it was at the bookstore and we got it for like $20 or so. , Hi, Especially if youre their parents, siblings or children. Which makes the seductive drugs become even more powerful. Thank you for sharing. Layne was okay until the last night of the tour. I gotta say, if demri had lived, layne would be here to, No doubts, if she had gotten clean, there would have been hope, and this world would be a better place. I cannot imagine how you feel I have so much empathy for you. He was known for his distinctive vocal style and tenor voice, as well as his harmonizing with guitarist/vocalist . 3 years ago | 67 notes #demri parrott #demri lara parrott #demri #layne staley #alice in chains #seattle grunge #seattle grunge scene #demri forever "Demri could communicate and socialize beyond her years. I was into the grunge scene since my brother first brought home a copy of Nirvana Nevermind in 1991. I never told anyone that I knew you and you used to tell me dont let it bother you. The truth is that the drug more powerful than the mind and often times the only way for someone to quit is to be forcefully removed because the will power is not there. Risk factors include intravenous drug use). Thats probably the biggest lesson her legacy has taught me. I hear all these people who talk down on heroin addicts because they cant just quit or that they make other people suffer. I had an office in town and they kept bugging me to come over. What a beautiful comment. I hated that no one knew who she was. I dont think many people did, to be honest with you. On the slim chance you ever read this, just know that even in 2017 there are people who still cherish the GOOD memories of that time, way back in the day when grunge was still in its innocenceto this day I get chills listening to AiC, Soundgarden, Mother Love Bone. Reading through the stories of Demris existence is at the same time beautiful and awful. It seems like Demri was homeless, staying here and there. Can you send me the link and the time in the video where you see her? One story he told her mom the other her dad. Tell them you love them every chance you get! Xana here, just wanted to let you know the photo of Demri at friends was my photo and taken at my apt in Hollywood, she did not even know the people in the photo, they m,et about 5 min before I took the photo. I bumped into this web site and it was a very nice memorial for Layne and Demri. The would cut and bag their heroin. That would mean everything to me. (The ones that used and didnt contract it, were generally the ones that either snorted or shot with clean needles. She wasnt making a lot of money back then, but she did manage to get a lot of his. I was wondering how Demri and Laynes moms were doing, esp. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBZm-_6Qa3k, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LL29f0AehNI, Oh Barbara, I was just waitting for your confirmation but now im very disappointed:( But anyway thank you very much for this site. Layne & Demri | Layne the Legend Your site is beautiful if I were computer literate I wouldve corrected the writer it is nice to set the record straight . were goners. Miss Layne so much. Nothing would have made her happier than to know her name will forever be attached to Layne's memory. It needs to be a full on mission or its 100% harder. Demri was sweet and helpful and fun. Just not interested in other peoples opinions or stories, they bore me. A fascinating existence to say the least. Staley's girlfriend, Demri Lara Parrott, started shooting smack and Alice in Chains got famous. MRSA has been around for quite some timeI first found out about it back in 1994/95 with some of my first nursing home patients that I transported to the E.R. I left Seattle because I was very stupidly stuck on Layne and I knew that probably nothing was going to come of it. I love you still, sweetheart, and Im so sorry. She died on 29 October 1996 in Evergreen Hospital, Kirkland, Washington / Bremerton, Kitsap County, Washington, USA at the age of 27. Tommy who bragged about selling Andy his last dose and Michael who was in El Steiner would invite themselves over, before AIC got home and did the Moore show. ITS NOT A GLAMOROUS DRUG AND ITS NOT SOME MYSTERIOUS ROCK STAR SHIT. Now to think theres Demri fan sites and Facebook groups!? Demri in 1996 and Layne in 2002. In October 1996, Staley was deeply shocked by the death of Demri Parrott, the vocalist's long-time girlfriend and fellow drug addict. Demri Parrott was an American artist who was born on February 22, 1969. Teri, Mark Arms girlfriend, was maybe going to live there and then Chad from RHCP did for a little bit but they all had their issues. Just how much sense does that make? but I cant help but wonder if he had stayed living there, if things wouldve been a lot better for Layne He wouldve have isolated himself in his ivory tower and died the way he did. Today I decided to post some pictures of Layne and Demri. A lot of creativity! Demri_Parrott_Photos - reddit.com I would stay with Layne and Demri sometimes, and I had laid on their floor kicking for a couple of days. Both Layne and Dem were very attractive individuals with a fan base. I had nothing left of them myself so it was like a true gift and to find pictures of my loved ones online. Jerry started to stay away from Layne though. YOU NEED TO STAY FAR FAR AWAY FROM!! The surgeon wants me to prove ive been clean for 9 months before she will do it. In no way did I mean to upset anyone on this site. 1 person I know said he came by their house in Seattle and wanted them to come to his car to see if this girl O.D.d. Oh my she was so beautiful, so beautiful!!! Demri Lara PARROTT Left this world October 29, 1996; born in Bremerton, Wa, on Feb 22, 1969 and attended school in Arlington. So for all the AIC fans who hate Demri because of this, you are all wrong. I think there are clues around us every day of something more and that when we die were NOT gone forever so I will continue to believe that something happens I just dont know what it is yet. According to Alice in Chains: The Untold Story, it was love at first sight. I have never had anyone die on me but I have given more people then I can actually count or remember CPR and I was never afraid to call the ambulance either. RIP Demri and Layne. I need spell check! Not trying to get anything out of you, no anger, but if what you say is true, and I believe you, Rosheen wouldve passed in April 1998. Hopefully others will not make the same mistakes that so many of us have. *, I will pray for you and your family, God bless you Susan. Who knows why, ours is to respect their will. I thought here may be a good place. Demri Parrott photo shoot. I also do NOT recommend enabling or helping addicts stay in their addiction by loaning them money or letting them stay with you.. especially if their addiction is messing up your own daily lifebut I also dont recommend calling them names or hating on them either they do that enough to themselves already. She was really frisky; she was all over everybody. I was anonymous when I knew Layne and there were lots of reasons for that. It happens a lot to drug addicts. Read that on someones Pinterest. Happy to hear youve enjoyed it. Anyway sorry I could not be more helpful. Im her age, a Seattle native and recently lost my sister to heroin. Demri is a beautiful woman. She said take her to Capital Hill to Rehab so he thought he was (per what he told me). Much love and respect to everyone that Layne touched. on drugs. If you have a better quality version of this photo please send it! There's a lot of information about Demri and interviews with family and friends. Her true fans have compassion. Surgeries on her. I know that you have a busy life, but Ill never forget that you emailed me info on Demri, such as her liking of decoupage with Angels & Victorian art, which she used & put on boxes as gifts for friends. You were like a mom to them,making sure they were eating and breathing. She thought he should because his stuff was there. Im a long time AIC fan and think Layne was the most underrated ARTIST of our time. He literally looked up to the sky and said, Thank you for this feeling., DAMON STEWART Right after the release of Facelift, Layne and I became roommates in Seattle. Demri Parrott (born Demri Lara Murphy on February 22nd 1969 - d. October 29th 1996) was the love of Alice in Chains singer Layne Staley's life. But, how did it happen? They both deserved better. when the crew were dealers too. You also made people smile and giggle and anyone who was ever part of your life no matter how long or how short.. will NEVER forget you. When they began the KISS tour, Layne had been clean for a (relatively) long time, but I remember he was very scared to leave. Im sorry, but I just cant stand the man. I know exactly what he was feeling like I felt it every day I had to go to work sick or living to get high. She never tapped it seemed.. no matter how horrible the circumstances got she could deal with it. I never met Demri but I used to rehearse at Naf and played at the Offramp and RCKNDY , so I met Layne, Mike, Sean and Jerry a few times.
