Brain tumors are not fun or fair. I worked for Dr Fox at Astra in the 90's

My thoughts and prayers flow to the Fox family during this sad and unfortunate loss. Mike touched many lives and his memory will bring smiles to all who had the fortune to know him. I first met Mike while interviewing at Astra. I remember he bent over his desk, put on a pair of eye glasses that had dangling eyes and continued the interview. It broke the ice and brought laughter to a stressful situation. May the Fox family find solace in knowing that Mike's warm heart, loyality and laughter...

I worked for Dr. Fox when I was at Astra. I was very sad to hear of his illness and passing. Please accept my condolences at this difficult time. Peace.

The thing that I will always remember about Mike Fox was his kind heart and his great humor. When Dr. Fox heard about my husband being so ill he made it a point to call and see if there was anything he could do. His kindness will never be forgotten.

There are so many stories and wonderful memories of Mike. His passing is so premature and very sad. Please know that his spirit and humor lives on in all of us that he inspired.

With deepest sympathies,
Jodi

My deepest condolences to the family during your time of loss. I enjoyed the many intellectual conversations with Mike while at Astra.

I worked at Astra USA, Inc. in Westboro in Regulatory Affairs and become familiar with Dr. Fox at that time. I was deeply saddened to hear of his illness and passing and my thoughts and prayers are with the Fox family during this difficult time.

I was a 15 year old senior aid and Mike was the counselor in Bunk O. He was starting Harvard in the fall and was already honored as a student and athlete. That was 40 years ago but I have never forgotten his combination of strength and kindness. I saw him next at Phin Tobe's 90th birthday, where we reminisced about that summer.

I am very sad to hear of Dr. Fox's passing. I enjoyed working for him at Astra. I spoke with him in January 2005. I am not sure if he remembered who I was. I myself am a 6 year brain tumor survivor. My deepest sympathies go out to his family!
