MARSHFIELD, WI (WSAU-WAOW) — Community members are mourning the loss of 16-year-old Cameron Kirschbaum of Marshfield, who suffered a fatal overdose Tuesday morning.
Friends and family gathered at the Marshfield Skate Park for a memorial this week, saying he was a true friend.
“He always knew when someone was down, he was just so sweet, he was a sweet, generous person, I’d say he was the best, and I don’t think it was his time to go.” said Ally Gunning, friend and classmate of Kirschbaum.
She said she’s grateful for the time she got with him and for living in such a kind and caring community.
