"The world is now undoubtedly without one of its brightest lights, but his spirit will live on through the kindness and compassion of all who knew and loved him. We are utterly heartbroken and ask for privacy during this immensely difficult time as we grieve the loss of our precious son and brother," read the statement.
"The night he passed away, we were out to dinner with him just hours before," Victor, Cameron's father, said. "It was a completely normal, beautiful family night out to dinner."
"I mean there was no way to know in hours my son would be dead. Like, it was just staggeringly crazy and horrible. And we were texting that night," he continued.
They have started The Cameron Boyce Foundation which pledges to raise money for the causes Cameron was passionate about, like ending gun violence and spreading anti-bullying messages.
