Tribute to Evan Chateauneuf

19 Years ago I had the wonderful experience of being a Nanny for the Chateaunef family in Boston. They had three sons that I took care of during the day. Cameron, Evan and Graham. They were a delight to be around. I knew exactly what I was in for having five little brothers in my family. I had a great time in Boston and meet many great people who will always be dear to me.

Evan was five years old when I arrived. I had so much fun watching him grow through his kindergarten year. He was a brave little boy the day he had to get on that big yellow school bus all by himself. He was so loving, funny and kind to all around him. He has a great smile that lights up the room.

Just this week I had the chance to talk and laugh with Evan about that first day of school, and talk of his dreams and joys in his life.

Three days later he passed away.
Evan I am so grateful for the time we had to talk
and for your love and friendship in my life.
I will miss you.

And to the Chateauneuf Family I Love You! My prayers are with you!

I remember him as a boy with a bright smile who was always happy. I'm so sorry for his family's loss and they are in my prayers.

I'm so glad that you were able to speak to him so soon before he died. I'm sorry for your loss, and for his family.
