I have bad news. Dr. Buckman died this past weekend on a transatlantic flight.
Renowned oncologist Dr. Robert Buckman dies on flight to Toronto - Winnipeg Free Press
Wow, talk about bringing this full circle--here's how Buckman's wife broke the news to his colleagues, from the article:
Dr. Mary Gospodarowicz, medical director of the Princess Margaret cancer program at the University Health Network, said she received the news from Buckman's wife, Dr. Patricia Shaw, a pathologist at the hospital.
"She basically emailed us saying that he was on the flight back from London, and he died on the plane," Gospodarowicz said.
