Passed on: February 6th, 2012
Erin was born on February 6, 2012 and passed away
peacefully, in the arms of her loving parents, on February 6, 2012.
Erin met us sooner than we had expected; we are at peace that we had but a brief
moment to show our love and joy to our little ball of sunshine. Erin fought like
a true Newfoundlander. Her mother cuddled, loved, and eased Erin on as only a
strong Newfoundland woman could. Pop would have been proud of his girls. I am
proud of my girls. Erin is survived by her parents Jennifer and Duncan Cameron,
Bridgeville; grandparents Maxine (mee-maw) and Brian Johnson, uncles: Richard
and Scott Johnson, aunt Brianna Johnson, great grandmother Mae Reid (Big Nan),
all from Humber Village, Newfoundland; grandparents Brian and Ann Cameron, Bridgeville;

may be made to the I.W.K. Health Centre Foundation at www.iwkfoundation.org
A
donation of a helping hand to someone in your life who is having a bad day would
also be perfectly acceptable to us. There are good people in this world; be one
of them. Jennifer and I would like to give a special thank you to the caring
and professional staff at the I.W.K. birth unit. Genuine kindness and empathy
was given and will not be forgotten. Thank you to the staff of the H.W. Angus
Funeral Home for making a difficult period in our lives as easy as possible.
Thank you and our apologies to the paramedics for receiving the verbal wrath
of a Newfoundland woman in pain. Sometimes idle chatter is the best remedy when
healing words are hard to find. We will be fine my love.
