 My son being the over achiever that he was.  He was varsity goalie.  

 http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu ... =406981418   Trenton's myspace that I made, this is about as creative as I get LOL

 http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu ... =120573782   My Myspace.

I have a ton of pictures on both sites, though some would like to see this awesome kid.  As you can see I have a ton of pictures and have been unable to do anything with them.  It is a goal of mine to learn to scrapbook in the future when I can get my feet back under me.

I want to thank you all for taking the time for this.  It takes a special person to show such caring to a person they have never met.  I appreciate each and everyone of you.

I am following this board closely, if anybody has any questions I am more than happy trying to answer them.  I love talking about Trenton it keeps him alive for me.  This is helping me heal.

Re: Scrap It Forward with Great Prize Package
 It was very nice to meet you, your family and parents as well Nicole.  I'm sorry it was under these circumstances.  I'm going to post some information I learned about Trenton here in case anyone doing layouts wants to personalize them more.  There are a couple that I'm not sure about if you could just add when you get the opportunity.

  • Three brothers - MaKay, Tyler and Phoenix
  • One sister - Salina
  • Grandma - Phyllis
  • Grandpa - Marvin
  • Best friend - mom was his buddy
  • Grandparent's have cabin at CDA lake and he loved it there.
  • Favorite animal - birds
  • Nicknames - didn't like them but one he had was "Tree Frog" due to a tree frog incident.
  • Loved skate boarding and soccer
  • Sayings - SK8 or die
  • Lived in Virginia? with father that is in the military and spent summers, holidays with mom.
  • 2008 would have been the first year he ever attended the same school for 2 years in a row.
  • Loved little babies.
  • Was present for the birth of his sister Salina and got to announce that she was a girl.
  • Went to Silverwood water and theme park in 2008.
  • 2008 was just starting to get voice change and did not like being teased about his squeaky voice.
  • Would tell people not to say bad language, even when other kids that were around him.
  • Birth Date?  I think January of 1995 but could you confirm?
  • Father's name
  • Step Father's name
  • I believe he helped build waterfall at your house?
  • Water sports that he liked?  wake boarding?
Thank you Nicole.  It was great to be able to learn more about Trenton.  Again, I'm so sorry for your loss and I hope that this benefit will help your family in the healing process.

Re: Scrap It Forward with Great Prize Package
 Brothers name is spelled MacKay.
birthday January 12th 2005
fathers name Danial
step dad's name Josh
Yes he did help build the waterfall at our house and I have pictures of him building it
he had just learned to wakeboard the week before he was killed.
He liked tubing also
skateboarding and soccer were his passions though.
He also went on a really cool alaska vacation with my parents and I have alot of pictures of that.

I can't thank you ladies enough for doing this for my family.  Me and my children will treasure this forever.
