Tadlock lost her father to suicide at the age of 14 and decided to attend the event in honor of him. 'Love Yourself' bracelets began with the Gardner family after Skyler Gardner killed himself earlier in 2018. The Gardners decided to hang the bracelets from the bridge, a popular site for suicides, in hopes that it could deter people from the act.
