I'm raising money for SickKids Foundation in Emmet Jeffrey Foster’s memory
Emmet Jeffrey Foster passed in his sleep early in the morning on Sunday May 7th .Emmet’s passing was very sudden and surprising even though he had bravely fought various heart aliments for most of his short life.
As the center of his parent’s universe and the center of attention for his friends and family, he is greatly missed. We will miss him every second of every day but are extremely proud to be his parents. We’re proud that he was such a fighter, we’re proud that he was so kind and loving, we’re proud that he was so precocious, and we’re proud that he lived life to the fullest.
He had a sweet soul, a love for music, and he looked great in baseball caps and sunglasses. He loved his family, friends, trains, dinosaurs, buses, trucks, garbage trucks, airplanes, riding his red bike, being carried all over Toronto by his daddy, all animals, ice cream, cheese burgers, pizza and coyly asking for a piece of chocolate.
In just over two years, Emmet brought sunshine into the lives and hearts of hundreds of friends, family, and even strangers passing by with his constant hellos, singing, guitar playing, and infectious smile.
It is not every day that you meet a two year old that can teach you so many life lessons. Emmet reminded everyone to live life to the fullest, sing at the top of your lungs, and always be ready to smile and rock out.
All funds raised will go to the Labatt Family Heart Centre at the Hospital for Sick Children.
*US exchange rate will be applied once funds are received at SickKids Foundation.
Our memories of this dear, sweet boy are indelible. Much thanks to Jeff and Helen for their splendid achievements with the Emmet Endowment.
