DOUGLAS DARCY
(Newfoundland & Balliol 1940) (15 August 1918 - 6 May 2020)
Douglas was St. Bonaventure’s College 11th Rhodes Scholar (1940) and its oldest living ex- pupil. A highly respected scientist, Dr. Darcy’s entire professional career was spent at the Royal Cancer Research Institute in England where he made several important discoveries in cancer research. Though he spent all his adult life in England, he never lost his interest in, or his love for both Newfoundland and Labrador and St. Bonaventure’s College, which benefited from his generosity.
