Carson Shipp Obituary

CARSON EDWIN SHIPP Passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, February 14, 2012, while attending the University of Western Ontario, London, in his 21st year. Beloved son of Gordon and Debbie Shipp. Much loved younger brother of Katelyn and Harrison. Loving grandson of Betty and the late E. A. White, and Harold and the late June Shipp. Carson was dearly loved and will be sadly missed by "Daphney", his extended family and numerous friends. Carson was born an original, a true leader. He will be remembered for his big smile, warm heart, brave strength, enthusiasm for life, love of learning, and problem solving skills. A special thank you to Dr. Gregory Bergey, Rebecca Fisher and their team at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore; the medical team at Sunnybrook Hospital, Toronto and Dr. Michael Wong of Mississauga for their commitment to Carson. A private family service will be held. A Celebration of Carson's Life will be held at a later date. If desired, memorial donations may be made to John's Hopkins University, (www.hopkinsmedicine.org/neurology_neurosurgery/), or to the Sunnybrook Foundation Neurology Department (www.sunnybrook.ca).

Dear Shipp family, although you do not know me, I did volunteer work with June Shipp at Trilliam hospital many years ago. But that is not why I am writing, I also lost my daughter very suddenly and want to express how sad I was to read about your son Carson. There is nothing I can say to ease the pain, other than I know what you are feeling, and if you ever want to talk to another bereaved mom, please feel free to contact me. I am also a volunteer with Bereaved Families of Halton Peel, which is where my husband and I attended a group, to be with other parents who were suffering with the loss of their child. Please , please keep me in mind anytime .. Right now I am sure that your family is in deep shock, and just trying to cope on a day to day basis. Although we are strangers now, we belong to an exclusive club that no parent wants to join... My heart goes out to you

I will finally answer the question:
In my 22 years, Carson honestly and truly was and will only be my favorite.
I do miss him. And yes I even miss those wacky calls at all hours of the night.
I will not forget his celebration of me finally saying "Carson is the smartest person in the world". Goofy guy.
He is forever etched in my heart.
