     Cameron was born in Mendota on January 18, 1983, a son of James F. Fritz and Marilyn (Bennett) Fritz. They survive.
     He is also survived by his brother, Ross (Melissa) Fritz of Vail, AZ; nephew, Austin, who called him Uncle Cramron; niece, Emily, who always smiled when she saw him; half-brothers, Jim (Nicole) Fritz, Jr., Tom (Alicia) Fritz and Ed (Stacey) Fritz; half-sisters, Rose (Rick) Michelsen and Rebecca Fritz; several half-nieces and nephews; many aunts and uncles; maternal grandmother, Aletha Bennett; and his best buds, Michael “Herrmann Munster” Herrmann and Buddy Dog. He was preceded in death by his Grandpa Bennett and Leader Dog.
     Cameron graduated from Richwoods High School in 2001 and earned an Accounting Degree from Bradley University.
     He was a Customer Support Specialist for HGS, formerly Afina. He was formerly employed as an Internal Auditor for the Social Security Administration in Baltimore, MD.
     Cameron had a competitive spirit and enjoyed playing in Frisbee Golf Tournaments, World of Warcraft and umpiring and refereeing soccer, Frisbee Golf and baseball. He was a classically trained pianist, under the tutelage of Raimundo Marquez II and, at the age of eight years old, he played a ten page Heiden Sonata for recital. He was a born again Christian and was currently attending Grace Presbyterian Church in Peoria.
     He was going to sing in “A Grace Family Christmas” this week. Cameron loved his family and was so proud of his cousin, Tech Sgt Elliott D. Crofton USAF, who will be attending the funeral service from Kiev Ukraine.
     The family would like to thank Dr. George Gilbert for his compassion and sincere care; all of the staff at Proctor Hospital Emergency Room and OSF Adult Cardiac unit for their heroic efforts; Dr. Mueller for his professionalism and care; and aunt Susan and aunt Berny, who are still listening.

Jim, Marilyn, and family,

We are sad that Cameron had to leave this world at such a young and tender age, but our hearts rejoice that he is with the saints that have gone before him.  His Aunt Ann will always remember sharing a special bond of love of classical music.  God gave him a wonderful talent and musical ability, and we were privileged to be recipients of that talent.  His Uncle Joe shared a quirky sense of humor with him.  We will be with all of you in spirit and prayer during this most difficult time.  We love you.

Marilyn, Jim and Ross-
I am so sad by your loss and inspired by your faith.  I remember him playing piano with such ease ...unable to touch the pedals. I am in such shock as are the rest of your friends in Forest Hills.

Marilyn, Jim, and family;
May you have some comfort from our thoughts and prayers for you at this time.  We know with God "All is Well" for He is love and He is good all the time.  Though we grieve with you for the loss of Cameron here, we rejoice with you that you will one day be together in one of those places He has prepared for all those who know Him as their Lord and Savior.  Think on Lamentations 3: 22-23," His compassions fail not.  They are new every morning". Trust Him also for His peace, mercy, hope, and joy.
Miss talking with you and seeing you as when you lived here in Peoria.  God's love and blessings to all, Carol and Roy

Jim, Marilyn, and Ross    I also have much sadness to learn about Cameron's death. Cameron always showed interest in everyone and always extended a genuine smile.  Not long ago Cameron contacted me on Facebook and we became friends again. He is now smiling and sharing his music with family and friends in Heaven. May God bless you in this difficult time.
