Remy's Bio                                  (Return Home)

Born in early 2003, Remy was healthy and full of life. He learned how to communicate to his parents by way of baby sign language even though he could hear just fine. John & Ashley once read that sign language allows the child to express themselves before language skills are developed. At 18 months old, Remy knew how to sign 34 different words.

When Cooper was born, Remy was the best big brother a little boy could have. Remy worried so much about Cooper's well-being and when Cooper finally came home, Remy made sure that he took very good care of his little brother.

Remy is very active and at 8 1/2 years old has completed several 5K races, two (2) adventure races and two (2) Kids Triathlons (Rocket Kidz & Mighty Kids Tri). The 2009 Super Cooper Heart Run in Houma was his first ever 5K race which he completed in 41:39 and a month later he completed his second 5K race in 40:45. Remy is also on the local swim team (Bayou Black Tarpons) and is a lead swimmer within his age category. Basketball, baseball and tennis are other sports he particpates in. In addition to sports, he has a love for acting and in the spring of 2011 was cast as the Cowardly Lion in a theatrical rendition of The Wizard of Oz.
