Publication: Herald Sun
Date Listed: 1/2/2024
Location: Burwood East

Passed away suddenly at Box Hill Hospital after a short illness, on January 25th 2024.


Dearly beloved eldest son of Giovanni (dec) and adored mother Cesira (dec). Loved brother of Peter (dec) and sister of Sandra. Brother-in-law to Peter and uncle to Shane and Narelle. Loved by an extended family and friends.


Cam grew up in Camberwell and attended Camberwell High School. After graduating Year 12, he travelled with his school buddies throughout Europe in a Combi Van for well over a year, resulting in chaos and many wonderful memories.


Cam had many interests but was most passionate about sport. He was a weekly racegoer with membership at Flemington, Moonee Valley and Caulfield Race Clubs.


His annual-leave holidays always revolved around the Melbourne Cup and Warrnambool Grand Annual.

His passion and love for football was for all things "the Richmond Football Club" and the Camberwell Cobras. He was a long term member of the teams, supporting Camberwell until the end of their era and remained fanatical for Richmond through all the ups and downs. He bathed in their success of the latter years.


Cam loved his golf, meeting up with his golfing buddies each Wednesday. He was in his element playing his final game last week, after having a short break due to his treatment. His stories of the 400-metre drive and the numerous 30 ft putts on that day are yet to be confirmed.


Cam had a deep love and respect for animals and nature. His fur babies were a huge part of his life. Ellie, Tiger, Jack, Maggie and E.J were always with him, even when they were long departed. His weekends away to the Otway Ranges always included his fur babies and their friends.


Cam recently retired after 35 years service from a job that he truly loved. Hazlewood & Hill in Burwood provided him with another family that he was happy to embrace.


Cam had a rewarding, happy and fulfilling life and will be missed by all his family and friends.

Cam's wishes will be fulfilled by having a private cremation. There will be no funeral - per Cams request.
