Don Cameron has Died

I am sad to announce  that an old friend, Don Cameron passed away on October 3rd.​

 

Don was a serious motorcyclist. He had ridden all over the world. He also participated in the Cannonball, the cross country rally for antique motorcycles. He was a regular at our SEAT multiple day rides. For 20 years he owned the BMW dealership, the Deming Cycle Center in Deming New Mexico. Many of us rode to Deming to see Don and purchase BMW and other brand motorcycles.  

 

For many years  Don had, a Veterans Day BBQ at his ranch in Deming. Over 100 of his friends rode from all over the USA to attend.

 

Don was one of the first members of SEAT. He joined in 1999. ​

 

Don was born March 8, 1942 in New York City, NY to Donald Cameron and Dorothy Parr. Don started his professional career with El Paso Natural Gas after earning a chemical engineering degree from Texas A&M University. His real passion was being a math teacher with the Deming Public Schools. ​

 

He is survived by his wife of 57 years, Mary Lou Cameron; his sons, Donald Aaron (Christi) & Rex (Wendi) and his grandsons Donald, Christian, and Andrew. He was preceded in death by his parents Donald and Dorothy Cameron and a brother, Neal Cameron.

​

Don was always a pleasure to be around. He was always very positive about everything. He never had an unkind word to say about anyone. He was always willing to help anyone. We will miss him as no longer in our circle of friends.
