An adaptive technology specialist at Robarts Library was crushed underneath the wheels of a TTC bus July 9.
The accident occurred at noon on a busy corner of the St. George Campus.
Witnesses say Jon Thomas Kameoka, who used crutches, had stepped off the bus when he slipped and fell on the cobblestone sidewalk at St. George St. and Hoskin Ave.
The driver did not see Kameoka fall underneath the wheels when the bus began to move forward.
Kameoka worked at Robarts for nine years, installing computer networks and assistive technology for disabled students.
His family and collegues at Robarts have set up a memorial fund in Kameoka’s honour to collect donations for adaptive educational technologies.
Counselling was available for people who witnessed the accident.
