I will cherish my memories of cutting Cam and Grandmas grass, riding the bus to all the musicals with Cam at the helm and Grandma as MC. I will miss the steam shows and Cam explaining how cool everything used to be. I will miss tomato soup at the table and Cams inexplicable kindness always to every single member of our family. I will picture him always in his armchair in the living room and grandma in the kitchen. I know he is at peace and his love for us brings me the same.
With all our sincere condolences, Joel, Bronwen, and Ellis Bossy

Thoughtful, interesting and selfless along with being a great friend of Mt. Zion.
The world is a far better place for having had Cam pass though it.

Happy birthday Dad, today you would have turned 95. While I wish with all my heart that you would have been with us today to celebrate, I came to know as I sat with you in the hospital, you were ready to let go, so enjoy your special day in your new home.
Love always Janice

To Rita.........Cam and his wife Rita were very good neighbors. Rita and I became very good friends and my heart goes out to her. Cam was always good to my mother when she lived next door and now that I have moved in next door, he was always good to me. I will miss Rita but will think of her often and hopefully will keep in touch.

Our deepest condolences from the Glatt-Moiseshyn and Lidzbarski Families.
When Rita, our mom, initially met Campbell they enjoyed many life adventures traveling through the US and Canadian east coasts and even toured with the “5th Dimension”. After the many years between their young adult lives they reconnected and a seniors romance story was rekindled when Campbell re-connected with Rita and in 2015 and then they were married.
They enjoyed and cherished each other’s company for over 7 years, traveling through southwestern Ontario, Newfoundland or British Columbia with Campbell always being the caring husband and amazing travel guide.
Campbell spent many hours printing beautiful pictures for mom (Rita) to enjoy and to see all the adventures of all her Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren. We all will miss Campbell and each day the stars, the calming lake waters and even the open highway will bring many happy comforting memories to mom of the special moments shared by each of them.

So sad to hear of Cam's passing, our thoughts and prayers to you and your family Janice, and to Dorothy's girls, Brenda, Barb, Mary Ann , and families,, and to his good friend & companion, Rita. Mel & I did many Florida tours for Hughes Travel over the years, plus other destinations, we also had many a good pepper games with Cam & Dorothy, seems Mel & Cam won a lot of the games, although I think they had signals. Lots of memories and good times over the years, but alas, time does catch up to us, and we are called to our final resting place. Rest in Peace my friend.
