Cameron Prather

November 15, 1967 - March 18, 2019

Cameron Prather of Westhampton Beach, New York died at age 51.

Cameron attended the Fashion Institute of Technology in Manhattan, and was an accomplished artisan, using fine fabric and textiles for custom wall coverings and upholstery work. His creations are part of the decor in many homes in Manhattan and the Hamptons area, Washington D.C., Cape Cod, London, and the English countryside. All of the finished products - done by hand, with meticulous and labor-intensive work - were the result of his gifted, unique vision of making a room, a space, an entire house more beautiful, survivors said. Truly his life's work was about transforming something ordinary to extraordinary, they said.

His trusted and loyal companion of 10 years, dog Lucy, is now living with a loving new family and continues to enjoy runs along the beach where she enjoyed so much time with Mr Prather.

He is predeceased by his mother, Janet Jamerson. He is survived by his father,, Gary Prather; sisters Lisa Prather Moffitt '84 and Stephanie Prather Sharlet '87; nieces Laura and Lindsay Moffitt, Cathleen Alford; nephews Cole and Ethan Moffitt, Jordan and Ryan Sharlet.
