He was predeceased in 2020 by his wife of 63 years, Phyllis; he is survived by his children, Kim (Comm'81), Greg (Jennie Akse-Kelly), and Nancy; and grandchildren, Abraham, Charlotte, Anika, and Leah.

Abe graduated from Queen's Engineering Chemistry in 1956, planned many Queen's reunions for his class, and went on to own and operate several successful businesses. 

John Alexander McNeil passed away on May 19, 2023. 

John was born to his proud parents, Evelyn and Alex, in Luanshya, Zambia. He was much loved by his two elder sisters, Jean Hafner and Berna Orton; and admired by his younger brother, William. The siblings grew up on the Copperbelt and remained close. From the age of nine, John was put on a five-day train to boarding school at St. Andrew's College in Grahamstown, South Africa, until the family relocated back to Canada when he was 18.

One of John's proudest achievements was establishing the Queen's rugby program while obtaining his Bachelor of Arts. John served in the UNTD in the summers, mainly at HMCS Cornwallis, and graduated Law School at the 카지노게임사이트 of Toronto in 1966.

John moved to Vancouver and joined CP Air, which provided him many travel opportunities 카지노 게임 컬렉션� and began his lifelong love of Hawaii. He obtained his MBA from UBC and joined Wood Gundy as an investment banker in Toronto, and then London, U.K.

While in London, in 1984, John married Susan Anker, and they had two children, Alexander (Verity) and Jennifer (Catherine). Both Susan and John were proud parents and devoted to their children (and generations of chocolate Labradors).

John had a stalwart career with Wood Gundy, Merrill Lynch, Scotiabank and others in Toronto and London. He made the most of living in the U.K.: exploring Europe with his young family, regular nights out at West End musicals, dancing at Annabel's, and of course, lots of tennis.

John had a varied and glittering career, loved his work, and, latterly, would take every opportunity to regale his family with news from the Ontario energy sector, for which he was a consultant. He was very proud to continue the family tradition of never retiring 카지노 게임 컬렉션� he said he would 카지노 게임 컬렉션�let the market decide카지노 게임 컬렉션� when it was time, but he was still bringing in business when he had a stroke in June 2022. 

He always had a pen in his shirt pocket and his daytimer on hand just in case.

John was a gifted athlete enjoying swimming, rugby, squash, tennis and, latterly, platform tennis. He was famous for holding himself to the highest physical standards, never betraying his true age, and gentle trash talk (mostly directed at himself) on the court. 

Throughout his life, John maintained strong bonds with a wide circle of university friends, teammates, and colleagues 카지노 게임 컬렉션� it was no surprise when he won the Social Butterfly award at the B&R last year.

John loved to travel, particularly to the beach over Christmas; Club Med in the Turks and Caicos and Kapalua in Hawaii were favourites. When John took his children on an extended trip to Southern Africa in December 2019, he put his Afrikaans to good use 카지노 게임 컬렉션� calling himself Johannes and making everyone giggle at his once-natural accent. Amongst friends and family, John was always laughing, often at himself. He had a unique and borderline confusing sense of humour to the uninitiated 카지노 게임 컬렉션� he and his children had their own private language and way of speaking that was as endearing as it was hilarious.

Despite his challenges, John had a perennially positive outlook, and was a gracious gentleman to the very end. John spent his last days at Amica Bayview Gardens, where he surely set records for his number of daily visitors. John's family thank the many people who visited and cared for him, but, in particular, Linda and Jamila, who have shown John incredible warmth and compassion providing PSW services throughout the last year, and the Temmy Latner and Amica staff who provided him with as much comfort as possible during his struggle with aggressive lymphoma.

John's frugality was legendary 카지노 게임 컬렉션� his idea of a treat was a long hot bath, a big glass of chardonnay, and a new pair of corduroy pants every 35 years. 

John, Bub, Bwana lived a wonderful life, and will be dearly missed. 

William (Bill) Allison, BSc'53, passed away peacefully on Nov. 30, 2023 at the age of 94. 

Bill graduated from Royal Roads in 1950 and then came to Queen's to study Electrical Engineering. After graduating in 1953, he settled in Peterborough, where he met and married Marian (Jones) and worked at Canadian General Electric for almost 40 years. Bill enjoyed many trips around the world with his work on diesel locomotives and rapid subway systems. 

Bill enjoyed skiing in the B.C. mountains as a child. He was an ardent curler and won a B.C. championship. In Peterborough, he bowled, curled, and golfed for years at the Kawartha Golf and Country Club. He was an active member of the Peterborough Theatre Guild. 

After his retirement, Bill and Marian spent many wonderful winters in Florida and were fortunate to be able to visit many countries with friends. His cottage on Big Cedar Lake was a great source of pride for Bill. The many years he spent there with his family were always special. Bill was a devoted papa who enjoyed teaching his children and grandchildren how to waterski.  

Bill was predeceased by his parents, Andy (BA'18) and Margaret; and his sister, Joan (BA카지노 게임 컬렉션�50). He will be dearly missed by Marian, his wife of 66 years; his children, Louise (Roger), Andy (Com'84, Law'87) (Patti Hall [Artsci/PHE'83, MSc'87]) and Jane (Dave); his grandchildren, (Laura, Jeff, Katie Benoit [MScOT'12], Diane, Lauren Benoit (Artsci'12, Law'17), Josh, Austin, Connor, and Brady (Com'16); and his nine great grandchildren. 

Alexander Michael Cragg Russo passed away on July 7, 2023.

Alexander, known also to his pockets of people as Al, Alex, and simply, Russo, was born in Clinton, Ont. and grew up locally in the Clinton and Goderich areas, attending Clinton Public School, Central Huron Secondary School, Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s and McGill Universities. 

He ventured West to his home in the Okanagan, B.C. in 2011 to explore and pursue his passion for wine. Alex was exuberant and passionately authentic, caring, kind and wonderful with eccentric confidence, infectious laughter, and a perfectly crooked smile.

Alex카지노 게임 컬렉션�s humour and expressions of love were complimented by his penchant for needlepoint, bone china, grooner and Belgian-style beer. He loved bright colours and imaginative patterns contributing to an unforgettable dress sense complete with shoes of all types and an international collection of unique hats and gold jewellery. 

Alexander was not shy 카지노 게임 컬렉션� not in person or over the phone or in the kitchen 카지노 게임 컬렉션� where he demonstrated an obscure way with herbs and spices, creating highly suspicious yet delicious masterpieces of flavour and texture. Wildly humble and unapologetically authentic he embraced and made space for the uniqueness of others, their tastes and their troubles and proudly exclaimed his love with unparalleled frequency and intonation.

On July 3, 2023 Alex asked to be Candace카지노 게임 컬렉션�s husband, unceremoniously and perfectly sweatily snug on their deck overlooking Lake Okanagan. He was complementing her (like he does) as she eye-rolled (as she does), affirming they would and should do everything together, as a team, forever. As a man full of facts about everything, inspired to constantly learn and evolve, it카지노 게임 컬렉션�s important everyone knows that he did not get it wrong, not even close because of their indivisible souls.

Alexander lived a full life of laughs, adventure, hard work, which he made look easy; love, which overflowed from his pores as sweat. He left in a justifiably poetic way, after a long chat with his favourite barber, while he finished a fresh fade and ensured his clean lines. Alexander joins his brother Daniel (2001) and Aunt Caterina (2022), as three permanent and eternal guardians to those who can no longer touch them.

Alex카지노 게임 컬렉션�s kindness and warmth live on in those who remain: partner, Candace, swooning over her bespoke sparkly hardware; parents, Michael and Constance Russo; sister, Billi-Dawn Chittenden (Sam, Mateos, Kayti) and the extended Russo, Wakely and Treliving families. Alexander카지노 게임 컬렉션�s passion and awesomeness will persist with his carefully curated network of friends in Ontario, B.C. and across the globe, who became family not limited to his CHSS, the L4E Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s crew, the OSFAM and the people he spent every day with at Le Vieux Pin and LaStella Wineries 카지노 게임 컬렉션� his Enotecca family.

Dr. Bill (Jan Willem) Kamphuis passed away on Oct. 30, 2023. He is survived and very much missed by the family that he loved and made laugh: wife, Nelly; daughters, Vicki (Keith) and Melanie (Robin); his own cousins as well as the large extended family on his wife's side.

Bill was a brilliant, generous and loving man, with an exuberant sense of humour. He was a leader and a mentor to his family, church, university students and the international Coastal Engineering community. His other passions were sailing, skiing and music, including playing organ at church. We will all miss Bill terribly and cherish the great times we had with him.

Bill was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in September 2020. Ultimately, he was taken after a thankfully short struggle with cancer.

Allan Harvey Reddoch passed away on Oct. 10, 2023 at 92. He was the beloved soulmate and husband of Joyce Dunston and the cherished son of Scottish immigrants Lt Cdr (E) Allan Reddoch and Mary Love Harvey. 

The family arrived in Ottawa in 1942 following his father카지노 게임 컬렉션�s Second World War posting there. Allan was an award-winning graduate of Lisgar Collegiate and then of Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s. In 1952, he 카지노 게임 컬렉션� as part of three-member team 카지노 게임 컬렉션� was the winner of the William Putnam Mathematical Competition. This competition is widely considered to be the most prestigious university-level mathematical competition in the world. 

Following his studies in chemical physics at the 카지노게임사이트 of California, Berkeley (PhD카지노 게임 컬렉션�60), he returned to Ottawa as a postdoctoral fellow at the National Research Council of Canada. He subsequently became a research officer there until his retirement in 1991. His work involved the application of electron spin resonance spectroscopy to a variety of studies in physical chemistry and solid state physics.

Allan카지노 게임 컬렉션�s interests were widespread and included astronomy, physics, history, woodworking, and eastern art and architecture. His memberships in Sigma Xi, The Ottawa Field-Naturalists카지노 게임 컬렉션� Club (of which he and Joyce were made Honorary Members), The Royal Astronomical Society of Canada, and similar organizations covered many decades.

Allan and Joyce카지노 게임 컬렉션�s long-term population studies of the native orchids of the Ottawa area spanned half a century and resulted in many publications, including their classic 1997 monograph The Orchids in the Ottawa District: floristics, phytogeography, population studies and historical review.

Allan and an Australian cousin traced their rather uncommon surname back to Glasgow and then to Linlithgow, Scotland, where their ancestors lived at least as far back as 1600, when the parish records began. Many of their ancestors were tailors. 

Kind, considerate, and quiet to the end, Allan is survived by Joyce and by Reddoch first cousins, Joan and Doreen, and by Harvey first cousin, Fay, as well as more distant kin.
