On Mother's Day I had the duty of informing my 16 year old son that his biological father passed away after a long struggle with some medical challenges. Cameron has honored his father in one of the most noble displays of respect I have ever seen.
Cameron has been fearcely maticulous in preserving all of the articles that were important to his dad, from childhood pictures to his favorite fishing lure. This has been a hard few weeks for our family and especially for our son. He displayed the unique character and dignity of a generation prior to his, as he preserves his dad's legacy.
There is no text book for how to handle these types of situations, but this young man through his actions, has written an indellible chapter about how children should honor their parents that will be remembered for generations.
