John Kanzius Has Died
John Kanzius, the retired broadcast engineer and station owner who grabbed the world’s attention by inventing a device that kills cancer cells, died this afternoon at a hospital near his winter home in Florida.
Kanzius, who also lived near Erie, was 64.
Senator Bob Casey released a statement saying, “I am deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Dr. John Kanzius, a man who dedicated his life to finding a cure for cancer. Dr. Kanzius believed that nothing was more important and more urgent than finding a humane treatment for the terrible disease. Dr. Kanzius and his work will be greatly missed, but it is my hope that someone else will be able to pick up where he left off. My thoughts and prayers are with Dr. Kanzius and his family.”
