MASTER CORPORAL CAMERON ANDREWS March 1, 1993 - August 2, 2024 Cameron William John Andrews was born in Port Perry, Ontario, on March 1, 1993, the youngest child of William Andrews and Aingeal Stone; and brother to Dillon and Elora. He grew up in Whitby and was involved in church, scouting, and cadets as a child. Just before his 22nd birthday, he enlisted in the Canadian Armed Forces and served with the Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians) in Edmonton, Alberta. He did one tour of duty in Latvia as a part of Operation Reassurance, and when he returned, he spent time as a door gunner with the 408 Tactical Helicopter Squadron in Edmonton. On March 31, 2023, he was posted to the Royal Canadian Armoured Corps School at CFB Gagetown in New Brunswick. He was an excellent instructor on several armoured soldier courses, generating many new soldiers for the Canadian Army. Cameron leaves behind his parents and their spouses; his siblings, stepsiblings and their partners; as well as grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins; and his nephew, Logan. Also grieving are his many friends, both civilian and military. He is especially missed by his loving girlfriend, Lauren.
