You were a very good man, Uncle Hank. I remember you fondly and I know my dad loved you very much.

Dear Hank
Today was a testament to the amazing person that you are. I met your neighbors, your immediate family, and your friends. I wish you were with us to toast who you are. A mentor, a father, a husband, an uncle, a neighbor, but most of all - a devoted friend.
It was such a privilege to know you, to be a part of your family. You are now one of the privileged to be part of the angels that watch over us.
Please take care of you, and take care of us. I am sure that your wife Dorothy is feeling blessed to have you home with her.
We will miss you dearly. I cannot tell you how much a blessing it was to have you a part of our life.
Much love and appreciation
Karen, Jim, Chrissy and Jennie

Hank was a wonderful man with a kind spirit.
He was fondly known as the mayor of East Lakewood Rd. He was well known and liked by all. He had a gift for spreading kindness and for being a good friend. I am grateful to have known him. He will be sorely missed.
My heartfelt condolences to his son Paul and all his family members.

Dear Dad-
This is your son Paul Dilberger Cameron. I hope you are able to see this note from the peaceful place I know you are. I just wanted to thank you and Mom for adopting me and giving me the best 46 years of your life. You gave me the greatest gifts of your guidance and love. For that especially, I thank you. I love you both. Give Mom a hug for me. I hope you are reunited and you are piloting your Liberty Sloop sailboat into the sunset together.
Forever Grateful, Your Only Son,
Paul
