Cam was most known for being the light that brightened any room he walked into. His laughter, sense of humor, ear-to-ear smile, and sarcasm could make anybody smile for hours after talking to him. Even if you were the butt of his jokes. He prioritized his relationships with his family and his friends above all else. His favorite past times were hunting at his grandparents, visiting his friends in Morgantown at WVU, also any other interaction he would have with his family, or simply anything outdoors. His was undoubtably an extreme WVU fan of any sport and loved experiencing these moments with his friends and family.
