Cam's Coffee Run

It has been quite a while since I wrote anything for this blog - I have been waiting for the time to be right. Cameron is on my mind and in my heart everyday but sometimes the stories just don't come. That is until today when I decided to tell you about a new venture we are pursuing in his memory. I want to tell you about something called "Cam's Coffee Run".

As you know, Cameron loved the movies so we have been purchasing movie cards to distribute to anyone who might enjoy a movie and a snack. These cards have been given to Cameron's co-workers, fellow students, friends, family, strangers and those in need. We will continue to do this with the help of those who understand the spirit in which these cards are given.

You also know that Cam loved working at the Lunar Rogue - but did you know that one of his regular duties was to take orders from co-workers and pick up coffee at Tim Horton's? He did this so often that it came to be called "Cam's Coffee Run" and I am told it is still called that today.

The coffee run was more than just a routine duty to Cameron - it was also a chance to get away from work on a break, do a small favour and even make some money in the bargain. Cameron was naturally generous and kind-hearted, but he also had Scottish blood and was nobody's fool - so he made sure that part of the deal was that he got to keep the change!

These gift cards will not only help us to remember Cameron and his special ways but they will also help others in some small way. Let's all think about that as we sip our coffee and dunk our donuts when we make our next coffee run... and don't forget to keep the change.
