PHOTOGRAPHY WITH A PURPOSE

Remembering Hendrix

We first met sweet Hendrix in June 2012. This little boy had bright eyes that sparkled and a smile that brought so much joy to those around him. He was a boy on the move. He loved running around… FAST, playing with is trucks, spinning around and exploring the great outdoors.

After meeting Hendrix, we stayed in contact with his family as he continued his fight with cancer. Hendo had long hospital stays, a bone marrow transplant, and many days of feeling yucky, yet he never stopped living each day to the fullest. The days were long and hard but his loving parents and many family members were by his side to comfort him every step of the way. In many ways Hendro was the one comforting others. The resilience this little boy had was uplifting and encouraged everyone around him to stay strong… strong like Hendo.

On April 16, 2013 Hendrix’s body stopped fighting and he was no longer in pain. He passed away at home surrounded by those closest to him.

Today, Hendrix’s memory stays strong through his parents efforts of providing comfort to others going through the diagnosis and treatment of cancer with their children. The Sweet Eats Program in Memory of Hendrix Wille has a home at Valley Children’s oncology unit. Many families are touched daily by the generous food, laundry and essential needs provided through Hendo’s program.

The Wille’s have become like family to us and today, above all other days, we think of you Hendrix. We send our love to your Mommy and Daddy who continue to be strong like Hendo.
