Boyce played his son in the 2010 film, Grown Ups and 2013's Grown Ups 2. "Cared so much about his family. Cared so much about the world. Thank you, Cameron, for all you gave to us. So much more was on the way. All our hearts are broken. Thinking of your amazing family and sending our deepest condolences."
Boyce was also well-known for his role on the Disney Channel show, Jessie. His co-stars Skai Jackson and Charles Esten, who played his sister and father on the show, shared their condolences on social media.
"I don't even know where to start... I am at a loss for words," Jackson wrote on Instagram. "I never thought in a million years I would be writing this. Cam, you were one of a kind. My heart will be forever broken. I am so happy that I got to spend almost everyday with you on set, you gave the best hugs. I wish I would have hugged you tighter when I saw you a couple of months ago. Thank you so much for being the big brother I never had... I am so distraught and I cannot stop crying! I love you so much... fly high 👼🏼 💔😢 Gods best Angel. #CameronBoyce"
