Shane & Kim,

I look often at the photos of your little boy on Starr’s website, he was beautiful. So wonderful to think that God loved him so much that he wanted him in Heaven with him. Keep his memory alive with you forever until you him meet again. I once had someone tell me the worst pain a person can endure is the loss of their child. So remember how strong you are and keep on keeping on. Lots of love and all the best in 2013. Remember Hudson’s watching you.

I want you back my baby boy. My arms are so empty and my heart hurts. Merry Christmas my angel. One day Ill see you again. Your mom loves you.

Dear Kim and Shane,

I am so very sorry to hear of your loss… words cannot express how sorry. I hope you have found some comfort in life the past few months.

My deepest sympathies,

Becky Adams (a friend of Kims from highschool)

Kim & Shane,

I was told about your loss today. I am deeply sorry for the loss of little Hudson. Although I only met Hudson a handful of times, I remember his sweet demeanour. My thoughts and prayers are with you in this difficult time.

Dear Cic and family,

We were devastated to hear about your little grandson, Hudson. Although we never met him and Kim, we thought for sure they would be part of the ‘Windermere Grandchildren Society’ on the beach this summer. Treasure the short time he was with you and know we are all feeling your sorrow.

Sincerely,

Diane, Lorne, Bob & Mary Kochorek

Kim : My sincere condolences go out to you and your families.

Hello,

You don’t know me, nor do I know you, but I couldn’t help but notice your son’s obituary in the Herald this morning. My wife and I just had our first child in November and we named him Hudson. Fortunately he is healthy and happy. I can’t imagine the heartbreak and sorrow you are feeling now and I would like to offer my sincerest and deepest condolences to you and your family. Obviously our sons had their name in common, but I also couldn’t help but notice the picture of your son looks very similar to my son. I love the name Hudson and I don’t doubt that your son was an awesome little guy. Stay strong and God bless you.

We are so sorry we never met the little guy. Our deepest sympathies.

Kim -Shane -Cec and family

It is with our deepest understanding we offer our condolences in your loss of your little fellow Hudson.

With prayers Leonard & Lucille

Kim and Shane,

Kim I don’t know you but I’ve met your dad and when I saw your beautiful baby in the paper I noticed his name. As a parent I cannot imagine what you are both going through but he sounds like he was a very happy and bright little guy – hoping those memories bring you comfort. My thoughts and deepest sympathies are with you both and your families.

Dear Kim,

I am so sorry to hear about litte Hudson. You have been and will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. Words are very inadequate at this time but know that my heart is with you and Shane. Iris Talbot

Can’t begin to express our sympathy on the passing of your precious son, Hudson. Simply remember all the joy and memories he gave you in his much too short time, and that he will always be with you in spirit and in your hearts.

Lorraine Smith, Jim & Chris Sexsmith

We heard of the news from Tracy Neff, and we are saddened by your loss, and wish you had and hold many warm and enduring memories of your precious son. It is most trying time on your souls and we hope you and your family pull together at this time and hold space for this tragic loss. Our thoughts, energy and love are with you and your family.

Kim, my heart goes out to you at this very saddest of times. It is so wrong when a child dies. To get through this you will have to remember all of the good times – the laughs, the love and the joy – of having a child.

I am not able to attend the service tomorrow as I am chairing a panel at a conference tomorrow morning. Cheryl

Dear Shane and Kim,

My dad and Lorraine let me know about the passing of Hudson. We are so saddened for your loss. You have been in our thoughts and prayers since Monday and we know there are no words that can take the pain away. I hope you continue to feel the love and support that our family (Ron and Lorraine, Courtlynd, Madison, Jennifer and Megan) have for you two. I only had the privilege to see Hudson a few times, but he was always a happy, beautiful and wonderful little guy. I am sure there are lots of wonderful memories of his life that you can take with you. You will continue to be in our hearts, and prayers in these days to come…

Kim, Shane and Cec

Our thoughts are with you, at this difficult time. Remember all the special memories of Hudson, a very special little boy, who touched everyone that met him. I will always remember him sleeping on my shoulder at the lake, content and happy. We are on our way home and will talk to you then. With All our Love and Support…

George and Gerry

I’m so very saddened to hear about the loss of your precious baby boy. Try to remember what a joy he was to you. He must have brought so much into your life in such a short time.

Shane and Kim,

I was so sorry to hear about Hudson. As a parent my heart aches for you. I only met Hudson a few times, but he was so sweet! Please know our thoughts are with you now, and draw on the support of your friends, family and the beautiful memories your precious son left you with.

Kim, Shane and families,

Betty & Les let us know about the passing of your beloved son, Hudson. We know what you will be going through as when you lose your child there is no greater pain. Thank goodness for the good memories that bring us through these tough times. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

May Hudson rest in peace. Our hearts and sympathy go out to all the family.

Love, Felicia and Ryan

Kim, Shane and Cec

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

You can shed tears that he is gone

Or you can smile because he has lived.

You can close your eyes and pray that he will come back

Or you can open your eyes and see all that he has left.

Your heart can be empty because you can’t see him

Or you can be full of the love that you shared.

You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday

you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.

You can remember him and only that he is gone

Or you can cherish his memory and let it live on.

You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back,

Or you can do what he would want:

smile, open your eyes,

love and go on.

I was so shocked to hear this news. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family! May God bless you and comfort you in your grief!

Kim and Shane,

So many thoughts and prayers are with you. Hudson was such a super cute and truly wonderful baby. The hearts of your extended family ache for you. I hope you can feel all the love and support that surround you. Remember that cousins are there for each other. Please don’t hesitate to call.

Love Shawna

What a beautiful tribute to Hudson. He was such a precious baby. He touched many lives in his short life. I enjoyed babysitting a few times and now these have become very special memories. With deepest sympathy …. sometimes there are no words, only love.
