Memories and Condolences
for Scott Campo
June 21, 2011
Not a day has gone by that I have no thought of you....
Every piece of my being has been touched by being with you. Songs that you use to sing, jokes that you use to tell, every yankees game I see, certain spots I drive past....
You are and will always be a enormous part of who I am.
I will never forget the ten years we spent together.
Always with you,
Renee

SCOTT’S DASH
Scott's dash was: a short 35 years. Over those years, he touched many people - whether you wanted to be touched by him or not. Once you had the privilege of meeting Scott ¬you never forgot him. He would change your life at the first introduction, because from that initial meeting on - Scott would never forget you. He remembers every person he has ever met and what you said to him and what you were wearing at that time - so think back - was it ugly? or out of style? - because if it was, it lives on in infamy.
When Scott came into the room, the whole room changed. He had a laugh that could be heard throughout the room, that deep voice - that he was born with - made you turn to see where he was and what was so funny, because if he was laughing, it had to be the funniest thing in the room at the time and he probably said it. Scott had a quick wit and an unusual sense of Campo humor. Many, many things can only be understood by his select Campo few - and you know who you are.
Scott was not perfect. He was stubborn, opinionated and competitive. But he was also, and more importantly smart, funny and fiercely loyal. If you were loved by Scott, he would stand beside you always. Scott was very protective of those that he loved. He loved with his whole heart and I guess, he hurt with his whole heart as well.
So what can we say about Scott's dash? He pushed every limit. We will say that he lived his life to the fullest, he was a loving father, a devoted son, dedicated brother and a loyal friend. Our lives are better for having known and loved him and he will be forever in our hearts.

May 7, 2011
Every day without you is another day we get closer to you.
I cant believe all things that have happened and you weren't here to see them.
As slow and painstakinly difficult it has been, life moves forward, life goes on.
I hug my friends alot longer, I accept more invitations, I wish upon stars, I tell my family I love them and I seize every oppurtunity that presents itself because if you taught me anything, its how short life can be.
You are missed every single day. I see your face, your personality, your humor, your smile in the faces of your family. When I close my eyes tight enough I can still hear that low voice of yours...
Its almost been a year since you left us but it still seems like yesterday.
You will always be a part of my heart...
Love and miss you always

I hope wherever you are you know how incredible loved and missed you are.
I think of you every single day of my life....

I wish this never happened, Scott.
I miss you every single day.

Please, for the love of God, stop the snow!!!!
January 22, 2011
I went out to breakfast with Kristy today and she smoked a cigarette in my car. After dropping her off and running more errands when I re-entered my car that distinct smell of smoke reminded me of you. I had not smelled it in so long that you would have thought you were in the car with me.
Just proof that I am constantly reminded of you. I think of you every day. I miss you every day.
I did not choose this and remember so vividly back in September our conversation that lasted hours.......you know what you promised me.
There will never be a day that I do not think of you.
Love always

January 17, 2011
I had another dream of you last night. I bumped into you, you were working. I remember feeling you were going to be so mad that I was at your work but you were happy to see and welcomed me with a hug and a kiss.
I asked you, "when are you coming home" and you replied, " there's nothing I'd want more, Renee, but I need to stay here for a while"
You explained yourself to me and I remember feeling happy . You looked happy and were smiling.
Even in my dreams I could feel the intense connection we always had. I know you'll wait every single day for me........so until then ill continue to talk to you in my dreams.
Still missing ypu but so glad to believe that you are finally at peace and are happy.
Love always

Hi Scott....
I thought of you today while I was cleaning. Mundane and boring, I know. But you'd be on the computer playing Bingo on a day like this and maybe we'd all play cards tonight.
It makes me sad to think of it but also so very happy that I have such memories as great as those.
Not a day goes by that I don't feel you with me.
Happy new year, scott

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

December 30, 2010
Its hard to believe that I will be starting a new year without you.
We all have to start a new year without you.
I will never make sense of what happened. But I will take all I've learned and all I've gained in strength and love and I will use it to be as productive as I can in the years to come.
I know you wont be there with me physically but you are always with my spiritually and always will be.
Happy New year.
Love Renee
December 25, 2010
It was one year ago today that you walked thru the front door of our home, sat down and watched "its a wonderful life". The irony of that night is almost too much to bare but I'm so grateful for the life lesson.
I will forever love you and cherish that night, our last cvhristmas together.
I love you. Merry Christmas......

December 24, 2010
Christmas is different this year. Ill sit down to dinner tomorrow with your family, we'll exchange gifts, we'll play cards and we'll even laugh and joke.....but we'll all be thinking the same thing: how much we miss you and wish you were here.
Merry Christmas, Scott.

I can't even imagine how hard this has been for you and how deeply you miss Scott.I can only let you know we all are feeling the sadness of missing Scott.
I truly wish things could be different but they can't so we have to believe
Scott is with us and keeping an eye on all of us.
We love you Renee and I wish there was
a way we could take all this pain away.

6 months ago all I wanted was for it to be "a year from now". Im at the halfway point and I still think of you and still miss you every single day. I know that will never go away....
Ive learned so much about myself these past few months. I didnt think Id be able to pull through the darkest time of my life and I can remember you always saying to me "Ill never have to worry about you because youll always be ok"......
I am doing ok thanks to the love and support of so many. And I feel you and I feel as though you give me strength every day to go on.
Fred boy is crazier than ever and although I know you wont like this, I let him eat ham last week :)
Merry Christmas, Scott. Dont forget to bring me the snow I asked for.
Love you
Renee
December 13, 2010
How about those Patriots. That snow was just the right touch. I hope you had something to do with it. We all miss you and we know this season will be extra hard on your family. We will try and help them as much as they will let us.

Today I came home to an empty house. The tree was lit, the decorations were up, Fred was wagging his tail.....but my house echoed in silence.
Our picture is on the fridge and I look at it every day and see your evil grin.
No matter what happens in my life you will always be "the one".
I love and miss you so much.
I want you to know how incredible your family has been......they have shown me love and belonging and support in a way words can never express.
I'm so truly blessed that this was a gift you gave to me.
Please ask Santa about the snow.......and see what you can do about the Patriots beating the Jets.
Forever yours

I had a dream about you last night. You were walking in front of me, your back towards me, in a supermarket. Just up and down the aisles and when I got closer to you, you would turn the corner into the next aisle and disappear. I never got close enough to see or touch you...
Next time you come into my dreams, stay. Stay long enough so I can see you and tell you I miss you because I miss you and think of you all the time.
Love you always

I was thinking of you this morning as I was getting ready to start my day.I come to check my e-mail and I see an update to your guestbook! How weird is that.I was rememembering the day you drove me home from the hospital when nana(Helen) had her surgery.We listen to Neil Diamond singing "Sweet Caroline" and I was so surprised to learn you loved Neil diamond music.
we laughed about it and you turned the volume as high as it could go!
Miss you Scott .

Its been a month and a half since you left and yet it seems like yesterday and it seems like forever.
I miss everything about you. The house feels so different without you there. I miss watching and playing jeopardy with you, softball on Sundays, Wii tournaments, cards, holidays, your incessant snoring, the way you smell, the way we kissed.....
I know they say time heals all wounds but you've left a permanant scar on my heart that will never go away.
The greatest gift you left me was family....
I love and adore you still and always...

To the family of Scott Campo, I only found out a few days ago of Scott's passing. Seems like we are reminded more and more everyday just how short life is and how unfair it is for parents to lose their children. Makes you sit back and truly think about what is important in this world, family and friends. I hope you all take comfort in knowing you have friends and family that will make these sad days a little more comfortable to deal with. May the fond memories you have of Scott, get you through this difficult time. My thoughts are with you all.

I have been missing Scott in the Island Chill room on Bingo Island 2, thot maybe we had just been coming on at different times and I finally asked where Scott's been and was shocked by the news...he was so young...my thoughts and prayers go out to the family....He was always the life of the party, he had me laughing so hard I cried at times talking about standing on the street corner waving in his pink halter top&miniskirt, talking about Fred needing an intervention, out feeding the chickens and he was campaigning to run for President and he talked fondly of his son in IL....he is missed by many!!
July 10, 2010
I miss you so much. I even miss yelling at your for smoking in the bathrom and you would grin and look at me and say "It wasnt me...it was Fred"
I love you...

A memory of Scott: Several years ago I went to visit Nana and Papa. Their door was decorated with beautiful pictures. I told Nana I liked how she decorated the door. She told me Scott put all the pictures there to cheer her. He was always coming by to do nice things for them. I never forgot how happy she looked to share that with me. Scott will me missed my many Loved by all. Love Ginny and Lou
