Dear Cindy,John & Jordan,

I am so overwhelmed with sadness hearing about the loss of Cameron. My heart is breaking knowing the pain you are experiencing. No one should have to feel such pain. I have wonderful memories of having Cameron & Jordan in preschool at the JCC. Cameroon looks the same as he did when he was 3. Very handsome & fulll of personality. It was such a pleasure to have all of you as part of our. JCC family. I' m thrilled that I had the fortunate pleasure & opportunity to be one of Cam's first preschool teachers & was able to teach him the skills to move forward to the next stage of his life.
Remember the good memories & the good times you all had together. It helps get you through the days & make sure to be their for each other. Sending good wishes, prayers & love to all of you.

Dear John ad Cindy, we are very sad for the loss of your precious son! Knowing he is in heaven with the Savior and his loving grandparents, Jim and Dixie, must be a comfort now. They were our dear, dear friends when we were all members of Zebaoth Lutheran Church so many years ago! The Lord's plan for our lives can be so painful but He has His reasons and He loves us none the less. Stay close to Him. Yours in Christ, Sharon & Marv Rosenau

I got the pleasure of knowing Cam. I had him in my APES class all last year. He would always walk in late to class with the biggest smile on his face. Constantly cracking jokes and making others feel happy with huge grins. Whenever I had a question he was first to answer and help out especially in group/stations. During one activity he was goofing around and we shared the biggest smiles. He made the classroom full of sunshine and radiated positivity and beauty to everyone around. Not a day went by where his smile didnt affect others. Prayers and thoughts go out to Cam, his family, and close friends.

Our heart hurts and our prayers are with your family. Cammy was a kind hearted, joyful, and respectful young man. He was a great teammate and beloved by so many. Never to be forgotten.

I coached Cam in hockey and what I remember most was him always smiling and enjoying every second of being around his teammates. He seemed to be in the middle of everything that was going on. A team player through and through. Typing this with a heavy heart. God Bless Cam and his family.
