Obituaries MORRIN ACHESON ‘…when the time comes I hope that I will remain in your memories for a short while like Lewis Carol’s Alice in Wonderland’s Cheshire Cat. The Cat disappeared but the grin remained.’ – Morrin Acheson, at his 90th birthday celebration in Basel, 25 February 2015. Emeritus Fellow Dr R. Morrin Acheson died on 4 July 2020, at the age of 95. Morrin was associated with the College and its community for nearly 70 years. He tutored over 200 chemistry undergraduates at Queen’s from 1953, when he was appointed to a College lectureship, and subsequently a teaching Fellowship in 1958, until his retirement in 1986. Morrin also ran an active research laboratory in the Biochemistry Department. His main interest was heterocylic chemistry, whose structures are at the heart of many natural products as well as many pharmaceuticals. In addition to over 100 Part II and DPhil students from throughout the University, he attracted visiting scientists from around the world. He was held in great regard by his former students and researchers for his kindness, encouragement and infectious enthusiasm. Morrin was punctilious in keeping in contact with them after they left Oxford and was indefatigable in sending letters, and later emails, congratulating them on new appointments and milestones in their careers and personal lives. They have gone on to pursue careers in accountancy, banking, the College Record 2020 | The Queen’s College 115
