CAMERON Smith’s life was tragically cut short last year.
In November 2020, 26-year-old Cameron Smith was stabbed to death in Seaford. A memorial is now set to be installed on Station Street as a permanent tribute to him.
Frankston Council have approved a request from Carrum MP Sonya Kilkenny to install a permanent feature to remember the young man.
Ms Kilkenny said “Cam’s father, Michael, reached out to me about a permanent memorial for Cam – somewhere to sit and reflect on a young life cut short and somewhere to sit and reflect on the preciousness of life. I put the proposal to Frankston Council who have been very supportive and I want to thank Frankston Council for taking this next step in approving the installation of a plaque together with a memorial seat which Cam’s former boss Toby Kennedy and Cam’s workmates would like to make and donate.”
“I know this memorial is important not only for Cam’s family but for the Seaford community as well who want to show their support and compassion for this family and everyone impacted by this tragedy. I will now continue to work with Frankston Council on securing the funding,” she said.
