Bryson Ray Rascoe

Bryson Ray Rascoe, From the moment we found out we were blessed with a child, we were elated beyond measure. We knew from the start that he would be a feisty one from morning sickness to late night kicks. Each day created something new, strengthening the bond between mother and son.  On November 16th, 2012 at 10:20 a.m. he blessed us with his presence, at Brigham & Women’s Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts.  At only 26 weeks, it was a sigh of relief to hear his cry for the very first time.  Our hearts were filled with so much joy that we were finally able to meet our baby boy.  His journey within the world had finally begun, although early, he was a strong one!  We watched his strength grow day by day until January 15th, 2013 when the Lord called upon His angles to take him home.  Leaving behind to treasure his memory: parents (Melissa Cameron and Rayshaun Rascoe), sister (Kylee Rascoe), grandparents (Brenda Cameron, Oliver Cooper, Mary Robinson (Gerard) Aunts, (Amina Johnson (Toby), Lashonda Barrow (Alister), and Nikia Cameron), beloved cousins (Nya and Camryn Johnson, Azanae and Camryn Barrow, Ramon and Deshawn Maddrey-Cameron, Jamaree Cameron-Lane and Naequan Cameron-Milton) along with a host of devoted relatives and friends.
