“Happy Birthday Cameron! Love, and miss you so much ” costar Skai Jackson posted via Instagram alongside a sweet photo of Cameron with birthday pancakes.

Us Weekly confirmed in July 2019 that Cameron had died at age 20 “in his sleep due to a seizure,” which was a result of his ongoing battle with epilepsy. During an interview with Good Morning America a month after his passing, his mother, Libby Boyce expressed that her son did “not want” his medical condition to “define him.”

“He loved life. He was kind of in a place — for me this is the hardest thing — he was in a place where he was truly happy,” Libby said in the interview at the time. “I mean, Cameron was always happy, never a negative thing came out of his mouth, but he was really just finding his groove.”
