Edward Humes Laughlin M.D.

Ed remains in my prayers each night.

I vividly remember Dr Laughlin when I entered private practice in surgery 1974
He always talked w confidence and spoke his mind and made stern decisions in his role w teaching medical students and residents
He was a disciplinarian in many ways and a good teacher and good to his patients
He is opinionated and also able to work w other people in his profession
I have seen him change a lot over the years to be accommodative and friendly
I also get to see and...

Ed and my father Jim Dunn of Greensboro remained tight, close friends since first meeting at the University of Virginia. We grew up hearing great stories about Ed. My father and all of us send sympathy. Jed Dunn

Ed was a friend and colleague who was always willing to get up in the middle of the night whenever his skill was needed to render life-saving surgery . His mental acuity and his sense of humor never failed him even as his physical health declined. I will miss him and his laughter.

Ed was always a close member of my family and my was father's best friend. I shared many days with Ed in the woods and around the table and will miss is humor, wit, and contagious laugh. I have solace that Ed and my father, Robert, are together once more sharing their wonder and glory. My deepest condolences and respect to the Laughlin family. Peace and love, Ed!

I had the good fortune to meet this fine man about 15 years ago at the Huntsville Athletic Club. He provided comforting insight when my daughter was facing surgery for which I will always be grateful. Luckily, we kept in touch with occasional lunch engagements with the last being several months ago. He was the consummate Southern gentleman and will be missed.
