Cam Rothwell

J. Cam Rothwell

 

We lost one of our long standing members on July 10th of this year. Cam was not only one of the kindest men he was also  the essence of our International programs . Professionally Cam travelled extensively.  While doing so, he became aware of the special needs of the rural people in the Dominican Republic.  In cooperation with other likeminded people he helped to set up several villages with schools for the children.  Meanwhile in Ontario in recent years, as the number of school aged children shrank, a considerable number of student desks, chairs, etc. became surplus and so were available to equip Cam’s schools.  Cam obtained several containers in which to send this equipment and he called on Rotary to purchase and send them to the Dominican Republic.  Our club contributed financially to this project. We shall miss him but know that he will always be watching, making sure that we continue to do his good work. Godspeed Cam.
