The Queen’s community is remembering George Hood, the university’s Vice-Principal (Advancement) from October 1998 to December 2006, who died June 30 at the age of 67.

An alumnus (Artsci’78, MPA’81), Hood led the university’s biggest capital campaign, the Campaign for Queen’s, which raised $262 million in support of infrastructure renewal and expansion.

He also led the Queen's SuperBuild Growth Fund effort, securing $52 million in provincial government funding.

A celebration of life will be held on Monday, July 17, from 1-4 p.m. at the Gananoque Golf and Country Club.

A family obituary is available online.
