Thomas Q. Cameron was born in Canada and raised in Boston. Tom served 91/2 years in the Navy. He was married to Ruth (nee O'Grady) for 69 years. Their journey in life together started in Inwood for 33 years and then Yonkers for 36 more years. Tom was a skilled draftsman for over 40 years. Tom died at Calvary Hospital after a long illness.
Tom loved all animals and owned many dogs and cats over the years. He also was an avid runner and participated in many marathons. In his later years, he still made a couple of trips a week to the gym and kept himself in admirable shape.
Tom is survived by his wife Ruth, sister-in-law Carmen Cameron and niece Brenda Jacobs.
