Oh Olaf!☃️ What a dream you have been! 😍
I told myself at the beginning that I wasn’t playing you but that I just got to be best friends with you, and what a joy it truly has been!

This summer has been a true blessing being able to be beside you being able to interact with cast mates and being able to high five and give warm hugs to the kids after shows and saving summer with you! ☀️ Milky white was such an amazing experience all those years ago but I’m afraid you have taken that spot from him! 😁😜

I struggled hard with not, not being able to see Cam in your ways and knowing how much joy he would have had being able to see you and the way you came to life on that stage!

Being able to meet this amazing cast has also brought so many new friends into my life that I’ve cherished and how some people are way worth melting for! This is what theater truly is.

It ended to soon but I will always cherish the moments we had and how much joy it brought to others and to us. This act of true love has truly melted a frozen heart and saved summer once more! Thank you! 😊

so… i’ve been meaning to post this since January

but a little over a year and a half after we lost Cameron, here’s my cover of “Home” by NF.

not my best work, a few mess-ups and voice gets a little shaky, but this song means a lot to me, you know?

i remember driving. i remember getting that text. i remember not feeling it was real, not being able to wrap my head around it. i remember the crushing weight in my chest, trying to understand what had just happened.

i also remember feeling God’s love. i remember knowing that Cameron was going to be okay.

this isn’t the end.
Cam isn’t gone.
he just found a new place to call home.

love and miss you forever, buddy. can’t wait to see you again 🤟♥️

Cam Life has and won’t be the same without your bright soul constantly in my life. Constantly missing those 2am messages asking for Fortnite or to go to tacobell or chick-fil-a. This past year as been the most difficult my life as ever been. Constantly missing being able to see your beautiful smile and the way you were able to fill the stage every time. I miss that.

Today marked one year since I got a message that hurt me deeply and the first time I really leaned on others to cry on.

I can’t wait for the day I will be able to hug you and tell you how much I’ve missed you every single day.
I love you dearly and will cherish all of our memories together the way I’ve done for the past year.

It’s not goodbye, just intermission. I’ll see you on stage in act 2! Love you bro. -TA

for a year, i have been pretending that losing cameron was a distant reality i didn’t have to face. i’ve been fighting posting about him on my page, for the fear that a mark on my digital footprint forever, must mean that he truly will never come home to everyone that loved him. i have avoided talking about him, telling rare stories of my last moments with him, or shedding tears for him in the eyes of others, just because i didn’t want to believe that someone so talented, kind, selfless, and a forever imprint on my heart, could go in an instant, never saying goodbye. today, for the first time, i have to admit to myself that this is a loss that shook me harder than i realized, and continues to falter my steps and push my heart backwards. cameron follows me everywhere, shedding his wisdom, light, and smart-ass attitude on everything i see, or appreciate. some days, i am glad that i can be a medium for his presence and his mission to curate a loving environment. other days i feel consumed by the anger of it. anger at our ability to act blind to the struggles of our fellow man. anger that someone as extraordinary as cam could be physically unable to ask for help. anger that he isn’t here, so that i could make fun of twenty one pilots and spicy chicken sandwiches (two things i cannot stand, but now have grown tender for, because of how he loved them). all of this is to say, no matter how long it takes, your heart will find a way to face its traumas, look them in the eye, and counter them. love counters your fears, and understanding paves the way for your fulfillment. i’m grateful for every smile i give to people, and every hand i get to hold. if you are reading this, you are never alone, because someone is out there, waiting to pull you up. i am out there. thank you for the love. keep growing, and changing, and experiencing. and if you cannot come to love yourself in every way possible, love the world and people around you. that, to me, is cameron. we are what keep his story living. 🌻🕊️

To my Brother,

It has been 1 year since you have left this earth and not a day goes by without you entering my thoughts

I am forever changed by you and grateful for the time we had and the memories we both made together

If you could see me now, I know you would be proud of me

I hope one day we will drive around at night again.

I will forever miss your presence and the guidance you have provided me

Keep watching from the front row Cam 🖤

One year.

I’ve been trying the last couple days to write something eloquent, something inspirational. Sometimes it’s too much.

So I’ll say just two things:

First, hold onto people you love. Tell them how much you love them. You never know when you won’t get another chance.

And second, if you are struggling mentally or emotionally, please talk to someone. Get help. The world is a far better place with you in it than without you.

We were honored on Saturday night to have two different groups of Cameron's friends dedicate performances to his memory.

@official_jordanm and Cameron shared the stage in high school through @theruth_academy and @theruth. Jordan put on Into the Woods with his new @adventuretheatercompany and the cast did an amazing job. They paid tribute to Cam at the beginning and brought @promise2liveofficial to talk briefly about suicide prevention.

At the same time, @meganhope_03 and her new Christian rock band @the.prodigals_christianband performed their first concert in Alpine in Cam's honor.

So grateful to these young people for carrying forward Cameron's love of music and theater.

We’re SO EXCITED to see ya’ll on Saturday! Our first show is in honor of our friend Cameron Ward who unexpectedly passed away in January due to suicide. But this show isn’t about suicide, but it’s on how God gave us His only begotten son because He loves us and how we must find ways we can feel His love and support because life is hard. Sometimes we just have to hold onto Christ when nothing else seems to be working. And when we do so, Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ become our friends who never leave. Their love and grace changes us into better people. We realize we are made for more. We start to see others the way Jesus does. When we love God and love our neighbors, we are filled with eternal joy! You might even save a life-including your own ❤️

We miss you Cameron! And we love the Ward family!❤️
