He was a loving and devoted father, husband, son, brother and friend. He adored spending time with his children, family and friends. He loved Key West and the waters surrounding the island. His favorite memories were of boating to Snipes Key, Mud Key, Oatmeal Lane and the multiple Tortugas trips with his brother, family and friends. When he wasn't on the water, you could find him hard at work creating his masterpieces at Mike's Radiator and Muffler Shop. He was the Michelangelo of mufflers. Cameron had an enduring spirit, and his zest for life was unmatched. He was charming, witty and handsome, and he made sure everyone knew it. His hero and purpose in life came to be his savior, Jesus Christ, He was his lord's greatest spokesman. Everyone Cameron came across heard the story of where his strength, courage and hope came from. Cameron's life was focused on God and Jesus, his children, mother, brother and the love he had for all of them. The example he set during his time here with us changed many lives for the better.

Comments; I didn't know Cameron very well, but I remember him being very popular and seeing him fly down White Street Pier a few times, as we all liked to do back then. I knew his dad who had a gas station on Kennedy Dr. and Rossevelt for many years and his brother, who was one of the best baseball pitchers ever. There is no doubt that Cameron is in God's hands now.
