Two years after tragedy, father creates tribute blog

I came across a blog this morning that I can’t stop thinking about.

It was created last month by the father of Noah Cardamon, a 23 year-old who was killed by a drunk-driver in southeast Portland on May 31, 2005.

The blog contains photographs of Noah and his family, Noah’s resume, a photo of the contents of his messenger bag the night he was hit, and poignant words from a father who continues to grieve for his son.

Next week will be the two year anniversary of this tragedy.

If you knew Noah, or just have some words of support you would like to share with his dad, perhaps you’ll consider leaving a comment. Judging from the thoughts he shares in this recent post, I’m sure he could use some support from the community.

Thank you to all of Noah’s friends for remembering him and keeping him alive in our thoughts. Also my kind wishes to all the people who have lost precious loved ones killed on bicycles. Every time I hear of another accident, my heart goes out to you.
