Thomas H. Crawford

I just found out Dr Crawford recently passed away and I am so very sorry to hear that. Dr Crawford was my chemistry teacher when I first attended UofL and took basic chemistry in 1976. I remember struggling through and being ready to give up however he saw something in me and he encouraged me not to give up. That confidence he had in me inspired me and since that time I went on to accomplish many goals that I would not have even set had he not believed in me which allowed me to believe in...

I met Dr. Tom Crawford when I started working in the UofL Chemistry Department in 1981. Dr. Crawford & his 'Poppollution' show introduced my (preschool age) son to chemistry and he talked quite often about what he saw and learned. Tom Crawford was a wonderful person. He gave to others in ways that leave lasting and loving memories. Praying for his family and friends !!!

Dr. Tom Crawford was my first chemistry professor at the U of L. Not only was he an excellent teacher; he was a good human being. I will miss his kindness, caring and love of the Lord.
