Please accept my heartfelt sympathy and condolences for your loss of Camille; losing our child is unimaginable. My younger son, Zachary Mason, went to school with Camille since the Dasher Green days. I will always remember one day when Zach came home from school, maybe 2nd grade, I'm not sure, and told us that Camille had told the class all about what she needed to do every day to take care of herself. Zach was so glad because now he knew how to help her if she was in trouble...it made a very deep impression on him. Camille was a bright star; and I understand the pain and grief of losing a child. Zach's older brother, David, died at 19 in July 2001. Please know that there are others who share and understand your loss and journey along with you...the Compassionate Friends of Howard County. Truly, love endures and love sustains.

Dear A.W. and the entire Pleasants Family,
We were deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Camille. (Mallory called us when six of us were coming back from White Plains from Pat's funeral(Skip's wife).) I am sure that you are all completely devastated by this. We never expect our children to predecease us.
You, CC, your mom, and all of the rest are in our prayers.
Sincerely,
