Tyler Cameron is remembering his late mother on the anniversary of her death. The 31-year-old Bachelor Nation alum took to Instagram on Tuesday to pen a touching note to his mother, Andrea Cameron, sharing his final text with her in the process.
“Dear momma, Today is never an easy day. Today marks 4 years since your accident and when we last spoke,” Cameron captioned the post. “I miss the hell out of you. We all do. I have a pit in my throat as I write this. You were such a light and you put that light on everyone who needed it. I can go on and on about you but I want to use today to remind people to take their time.”
Noting that it’s “so easy” to get caught up in the day-to-day, Cameron urged his followers to take the time to connect with those most important to you.
“Take your time to have that meaningful call or text message. My mom was always there and she was the rock,” he wrote. “I took her for granted at times when I wish I would have taken my time.”
The reality star pointed to his final texts to his mother as an area in which he’d taken more time.
“I share with yall my last messages with her. They were short, and rushed,” he said. “I did not take my time and now I wish I could have that time back to really call her and tell her I love her and how excited I am to see her. How excited I am to start this new dream project with you. All I ask from all of you is to take your time, and call those loved ones that always have your back and always are reaching out to you. Your call or text will mean the world to them and you never know when it will be your last chance to do so. We all can be better at doing this.”
Cameron also highlighted the Andrea C. Cameron Foundation, sharing that this year they will be adding 15 students and spending more than $250,000 on their tuition to their already impressive roster.
He concluded his message, writing, “Call your loved ones today, you never know when it will be your last. Love you momma! Love you all, call home for me ❤️❤️❤️.”
Andrea died in March 2020. Following her death, Cameron and his brothers, Ryan and Austin, told Palm Beach Post that her cause of death was a brain aneurysm.
Cameron also took to his Instagram Story to share that he had experienced another loss, posting a photo of a man named Nito with his late mother.
“Sadly heaven gained another angel today. Rest easy Nito,” he wrote. “You had the biggest heart and you always took care of my mom when she needed anything. You were always looking out for me and her. Momma is in heaven giving you the biggest hug right now. Jupiter is at a loss losing someone like you. You were the person no matter what, always picked up the phone. I wish you peace brother. We will all miss you.”
