We are sad to convey that John Cameron, an emeritus member of our department has died. He is survived by his wife of 60 years, Frances and his sons Richard (Alexa), Michael (Katherine) and James (Jason) and his five grandchildren Atticus, Audrey, Oona, Alasdair and Inigo. John received his PhD in nuclear physics from McMaster then went to Oxford on a Sloan Fellowship. He returned to McMaster as a member of the Department of Physics & Astronomy for 35 years. John was active in the community with the Westdale United Church and the United Way. He was a long time member of the Westdale United Church choir and sane with the Te Deum Singers. The Celebration of his Life will be held on Saturday October 13 at Westdale United Church at 11am, followed by a reception. In lieu of flowers, if you wish, donations may be made to Westdale United Church (
