Jack J. Cameron, 82

March 23, 1932 - Nov. 25, 2014

Celebration of life to be held from 5-8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 23, 2015, at the Eagles Lodge (upstairs lounge) in Coeur d’Alene.

Jack is survived by his son, Steven Cameron of Spokane, Wash.; sister Geneive Moddison of Sacramento, Calif.; sister Wanda Boot of Vellejo, Calif.; and sister-in-law Donne Lea Cameron of Terrebon, Ore.; and various nieces and nephews.

Jack is a retired Air Force/Post Korean War veteran whom at a young age in 1969 went on to develop and manage the famous Sears Raceway in California and in early 1973 made his home in Hamilton, Mont., where he built the first casino/lounge/restaurant/gas station and was an avid hunter. He then moved to Coeur d’Alene in 1983 and purchased the Atrium on Appleway in Coeur d’Alene and in the following 10 years he also established Cheers Bar and Grill on Fourth Street, Coeur d’Alene Deli on Northwest Boulevard and was involved in numerous other adventures.

He is sadly missed by his friends, Mathew Bosnell, Debbie Pederson, Linda Missamori, Astochiana Esparza, and many others. Jack was very well liked and such a giving soul and we would love to have all of you join us for his celebration of life, just to share stories and a toast to his life.
