The Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s community is remembering Gordon Gray, BComH카지노 게임 컬렉션50, LLD카지노 게임 컬렉션04, the respected business leader and philanthropist who provided invaluable support for the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO).
The former real estate executive, previously awarded both the Order of Ontario and the Order of Canada, passed away on May 19, 2024, in Richmond Hill, Ontario. He was 96.

A dedicated philanthropist, he and his wife, Patricia Gray, established the Gordon and Patricia Gray Chair in Particle Astrophysics in 2006. In 2015, Professor Emeritus Art McDonald, the first Gray Chair, was named a co-recipient of the Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on the SNO project.
카지노 게임 컬렉션Through the Gray Chair in Particle Astrophysics, Gordon provided essential support to Dr. McDonald and Professor Chen카지노 게임 컬렉션s research into the subatomic neutrino,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Principal and Vice-Chancellor Patrick Deane. 카지노 게임 컬렉션These scientific contributions, which have advanced our understanding of the universe, and also set the path for new directions in the study of physics and astronomy, are some of the university카지노 게임 컬렉션s proudest achievements.카지노 게임 컬렉션
Gray, who grew up in Copper Cliff (now a suburb of Sudbury), near Creighton Mine, the home of the observatory, believed establishing an endowed chair would allow a researcher to focus all their attention on the SNO project.
