Aunt Cam was a sweetie! My fondest memory of her was when I mailed her a poem I had written for school. Her reply was no normal letter, but a poem just for me. I did one time get to spend time with her in her home in East Moline, and she was an absolute Angel.
Aunt Eunice, Aunt Grace, Aunt Cam and my Granny Estelee were all awesome ladies! We were all so very lucky to have them in our lives and they will never be forgotten.

Although it has been many years since I´ve seen Aunt Cam, my memories of her all full of love and fun. She was a great sister to my Grandmother, Estelee. I used to love to listen to the two of them on the phone with each other! They would get so tickled at one another. I will always remember what a talented poet she was as well.

There are just no words to let you all know how I feel! Aunt Cam was a very special lady! She was such a sweetheart! She was funny, poetic and told it like it was. She loved her family with a very special love! I know she is where she wants to be even though it is hard on us! You all will be in my thoughts and prayers in the days ahead! Love you all!
