In Memory of Bill Kamell

A ‘Compassionate, devoted’ man

Canandaigua, NY — Compassionate caregiver, doting grandfather, man of deep and profound faith. These are just some of the ways family and friends will remember Dr. William M. Kamell, a longtime area orthopedic surgeon who died Oct. 16 at the age of 63.

Dr. Kamell had such a deep and abiding passion for life, they said, that he still found reasons to celebrate even as a rare auto-immune condition robbed him of the things he loved to do.

“He affirmed that life is good and worth living,” said Dr. Kamell’s oldest daughter, Lisa Hough, of Canandaigua. “In the end, it was not always easy, but he chose not to live in bitterness.”
