Professor William Fredrick Blakemore

A great mentor to us young PhD students with a dry sense of humour. Focused on his CNS research throughout. Great bird photographer.

Dr Graham and Ruth Betton

Dear Brenda and family, I was very sorry to hear of Bill's death. He was a good friend to me at the Dept of Clinical Veterinary Medicine and at Wolfson College. Bill and you were good supporters of the outings I organised on behalf of the Society of Emeritus Fellows. I hope you will continue to maintain your association with the Society of Emeritus Fellows at Wolfson.

We miss him. David, Jill and Claire

Professor David Taylor

Bill will be sadly missed by all who knew him.

Mr Peter Dann

Bill was not only a great man in the scientific world but a great friend. His children and grandchildren are a tribute to Bill and to Brenda and the service yesterday at St. Andrew’s church clearly demonstrated the love of his family and the affection and respect so many others have for him. We shall always carry so many happy memories of times spent together. With our love and sincere condolences to Brenda and their family. Lewis and Nancy

Dear Brenda and family, My deepest condolences. Like so many fortunate enough to have been Bill's students, I owe him my career. I shall miss him dreadfully - my mentor and my friend. Much love, Robin
