John Angus

John Angus and I both served on the Case Institute of Technology Chemical Engineering Department Development Committee for many years (and enjoyed getting together for a yearly Martinee after the meetings). I loved hearing about his many accomplishments in his laboratory and his adventures in his world travels to present his fascinating work. He was a good friend!

Dr. Angus was my favorite professor while I was at CWRU. I started working with him as a Freshman on a research project and he was my research advisor through my masters degree. I had the privilege to be a TA for him and he indulged my quirkiness , allowing me to award "cats paws" like gold starts to the best homework assignments. I kept up with him for many years and valued his insights, both professionally and personal. He will be greatly missed.

Dear Angus Family, please accept my deep condolences. I am truly sorry for your loss. Dr. Angus easy manner and love of life endeared him to the whole CWRU academic family, one of whom was myself during the early 1970s. He and his family generously offered me, newly married graduate student, usage of his house and care for Love Beads, Scottish Terrier dog during Edinboro sabbatical year. I shall never forget his support and willingness to help. John will be truly missed by all who knew him...

Dr Angus was one of my favorite professors. He sent me to Scotland with two classmates in the late 70s as exchange students at the University of Edinboro. It was a great opportunity and as promised I wrote him at least once a month to let him know what we doing. After I graduated and moved away and then back to Cleveland we'd run into him and his wife and laugh about adventures. And when he retired he gave me an envelope with all my letters to him from Scotland. He and his wife were such...

Sending my deepest condolences to the entire Angus family. John was a sweet giant among the CWRU faculty, and his influence was thru his soft but forceful advice and counsel. From the moment I was first introduce to John in the early 1970's, we connected. My thanks for being a guiding light for me for my early years at CWRU. Having known him was a gift and he will be missed. ARNOLD I CAPLAN, Professor of Biology

Dr. Angus was a pioneer in the area of diamond research. We have met several times in scientific meetings and in our institute, NIRIM in Tsukuba, Japan. In 1990, he invited me to a symposium which he held in Ohio. He was not only an excellent scientist but also a warm-hearted man. With many thanks and deep sorrow, Seiichiro Matsumoto, Tsukuba, Japan

Sending our deepest condolences to the entire Angus family. John was truly a remarkable man. Although our interactions were brief, it was evident how much love he had for his family. We are grateful for the time we spent in Michigan at his beloved lake house during the wedding week of Chuck and Shannon. May his memory be a blessing to you all.
