A spokesperson for his family told ABC News: “It is with a profoundly heavy heart that we report that this morning we lost Cameron.

The world is now undoubtedly without one of its brightest lights, but his spirit will live on through the kindness and compassion of all who knew and loved him. We are utterly heartbroken and ask for privacy during this immensely difficult time as we grieve the loss of our precious son and brother.”
