In Memoriam


George A.M. “Tony” Butterworth died January 14, 2024, after a long illness. Dr. Butterworth joined The Fiber Society in 1966. He served the Society in many capacities: on the Governing Council, as vice-president in 1980, and as president in 1981. He was a presence at Fiber Society conferences over many years.

Tony is remembered for his intellect, his curiosity, his resourcefulness, his energy, and his humor. Those of us who knew him and had the pleasure of his company will long remember him for all those attributes and for the personal one-on-one memories of time well spent with Tony. His is an enduring legacy; he will be missed.
