In July 2019, Disney Channel star Cameron Boyce tragically died in his sleep at the age of 20, with his cause of death later being confirmed as a seizure related to his epilepsy. Cameron made his feature film debut at just 9 years old, when he starred in the horror movie Mirrors, which was released in 2008.

Online, fans were moved by the tribute, which comes six years after Boyce's death. Boyce's mom, Libby Boyce, thanked Sandler for "honoring Cam's legacy" in a joint post with the official Instagram account for the Cameron Boyce Foundation, which funds epilepsy research, education and awareness.

Adam Sandler has paid tribute to his late “Grown Ups” co-star with a thoughtful scene in “Happy Gilmore 2,” which premiered on Netflix on Friday. The blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment comes early in the new sequel, when Sandler’s titular character approaches a check-in booth before starting a round of golf.
