As received from Clan Cameron - Ontario Branch. I had the pleasure of meeting Lochiel in
August, 2000. The meeting was most memorable. Lochiel was a wonderful man. Regards,
Scott

It is with deep sorrow that I must tell you the Chief of Clan Cameron, Donald Hamish
Cameron of Lochiel has died. This man, Chief among Chiefs, will be remembered as one of
Scotland's greatest Chiefs. He will be missed, honored and credited with bringing our
Clan to its present stature as one of the most highly respected within the Scottish family
of Clans. While he
died on Wednesday, the family asked me to delay announcement until they were ready to make
it public. Donald Andrew informed me that we could make the announcement of his death
public now.
Donald Angus and Donald Andrew, along with other members of the family, have hastened to
Achnacarry to be with Lady Cameron who is, understandably, emotionally distraught. Please
send your condolences either by mail or email as soon as you can.
The funeral is to be held on Friday, June 4, 2004 at the St. Andrew's Church in Ft.
William.
Official announcement of his death will also appear on the Clan Cameron Website
www.clan-cameron.org
Respectfully,
Donald Cameron
Commissioner
