Camille’s Story (1980s)

Camille and her husband wanted to start a family and decided their path would be through adoption.

Camille remembers the day she received the phone call about children who needed a home. Not one, not two, but three.

“I thought ‘Wowie, we are lucky,’” Camille said. She and her husband decided that the arrangement was perfect—they adopted Heidi, Caroline and Bobby and became a family.

Camille and her husband’s role as adoptive parents made a significant impact in many ways, including inspiring her daughter Caroline to do the same. After Caroline’s two biological children reached adulthood, she opened her home and adopted two young children and is now fostering a baby.

“The story of our family goes on and on. We’re just thrilled.”
