Cameron Lee Blackwell


Cameron was a shooting star that was here only for a moment before he cruised to heaven. His smile, blue eyes, and charm lit up the room wherever he went. May his bright light shine forever and always be remembered. He was just 18 years old and graduated from Pioneer High School in Carson City, Nevada.

He lived his life as he wanted, on his terms, having fun and taking adventures. He pushed it to the limit no matter what he was doing, he lived on the edge. Cameron was involved in a single car accident on his way moving to Phoenix, Arizona with his friends. He was about to start the next chapter in his life.

Cameron has countless friends all over especially in Nevada, Arizona, California, and Mississippi. He never met a stranger and would do anything for a friend.

He leaves behind a loving family including his parents, Erik and Audra Blackwell; his lil sis, Kayla Rose; grandparents, Wesley and Janice Blackwell, and Raymond and Polly Price; many aunts, uncles and cousins.

Cameron’s family requests in lieu of flowers, please contribute to the “Cameron Blackwell’s Legacy” GoFundMe.com account to help build one of Cameron’s dreams.

A Celebration of Cameron’s Life will be held August 10, 2014 at 3:00pm at the Calvery Chapel, 1635 Clearview Dr., Carson City, NV.
