God called you home

God looked around his garden
And He found an empty place.
He then looked down upon this earth,
And saw your tired face.

He put his arms around you
And lifted you to rest.
God’s garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best.

He knew that you were suffering
He knew you were in pain
He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again.

He saw that the road was getting rough.
And the hills are hard to climb,
So He closed your weary eyelids
And whispered "Peace be thine".

It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn’t go alone
For part of us went with you
That day that God called you home.

I love you.

My Dear sweet Cammy,

July 23rd marks the last time I heard those precious word's,

" I Love You Mom "

My prompt response of course being, "I Love You too Cam " If I had only known those were to be our final words,I would have said so much more.

I would have told you what a wonderful son you were and that your smile was big enough to light up a room. I would have told you that I wouldnt trade a minute of your seven years for anything in this world. Last but not least, I would have told you that having you in my life was the best thing that could have ever happened and enduring the pain of loosing you, cannot compair to the joy, Love, and laughter you brought to our lives.

I miss you terribly, and long to see your beautiful smile, and your innocent eyes. Your little voice when you spoke rings clearly in my thought's.

Thank You for being in my life Cameron, and thank you for showing me the way.

Mommy misses You, and Love's You !

It has almost been a year since you left and I miss you as much today as I did that first day. I hear your voice call to me and I can close my eyes and see your smiling face watching me. I know that you are watching over all of us and I beleive that you have helped all of us in some small way or another. When I go to see you I always leave more at peace with myself then when I went. You were and always will be my riblet and I love you so much. I am glad that you are willing to show me that you are still with me. You will always be in my thoughts. I love you son.

God saw you getting tired and a cure not to be. So he put his arms around you and whispered," Come to me." With tearful eyes we watched you , and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, playful hands laid to rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us that he only takes the best.

David,



It’s hard to know just what to say,

When one so young is taken away.

Far too soon he had to part,

His memory forever engraved in our heart.





We only knew him a short while,

But the life he led made us smile.

He was so beautiful and oh so rare,

Life as they say is just not fair.





All our love to his family we give,

For they must now go on and live.

Those gone before him will watch him with care,

Till the day comes when we’ll all join him there.



Know Cammy is watching from heaven above,

And with each ray of sunshine, he’s sending his love.

This song by Willie Nelson is a great tribute to Cameron.

Truly an Angel....

God bless you all.



If you had not have fallen then I would not have found you

Angel flying too close to the ground

I patched up your broken wing and hung around for a while

trying to keep your spirits up and your fever down

So leave me if you need to,

I will still remember

Angel flying too close to the ground.

I knew someday that you would fly away

for love’s the greatest healer to be found

So leave me if you need to,

I will still remember

Angel flying too close to the ground

Fly on fly on past the speed of sound

I’d rather see you up than see you down

So leave me if you need to,

I will still remember

Angel flying too close to the ground.

I want to express my deepest sympathy for your and your family at the loss of your dear, dear son. I know I only met you a couple of times, but through my daughter Heather Converse, I know how much your children mean to you. Cameron had a very special place in your heart. You were a great father to your little boy, and he knows it. I will be praying for you, and know that God is with you. Although it is so hard, remember he is in God's care now with a big smile on his face. He will be watching over you and your son from now on. God bless you all.
