Memorial website in the memory of your loved one

This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Cameron Duncan who was born in New Zealand on April 20, 1986 and passed away on November 12, 2003 at the age of 17. 
He will never be forgotten.  
(see slide show below)
Cameron Duncan was a promising young New Zealand film maker who captured the attention of many during his short but meaningful time on this planet.

Academy Award winning film maker/director Peter Jackson was one who was so captivated by young Cameron's talent that he included two of Cameron's short films, 'DFK6498' and 'Strike Zone', on the Appendices VI, Extended DVD of Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King.

This extraordinary young man exhibited a unique talent in the use of the media of film, both in front of and behind the camera. He knew how to captivate his audience and how to take them on a journey that would move their souls. His work was beautiful, haunting and extremely poetic and continues to entertain, educate and inspire people all over the globe.

Cameron lost his valiant battle with cancer on November 12, 2003 after receiving treatments in Auckland New Zealand, Melbourne Australia, Tijuana Mexico and Houston USA. 

To the very end he was a courageous fighter who never lost hope. Sadly his condition was diagnosed too late but, despite this fact, he travelled the globe in search of a cure and subjected himself to extreme doses of conventional and alternative treatments. 

As he said, "You only regret the things you didn't do."

May his bravery and talent live forever in our hearts.

"No regrets."
