Thomas Hunt

I think of Dr Hunt often. He is missed.

Fondly remembered. Deeply treasured. Now and forever.

My condolences to the whole family. I remember very fondly the many interesting conversations with TK. During his Work in Tübingen, he also promoted and shaped my scientific Development.

I am very sad to learn that Tom has passed. While we had our differences of opinion on scientific matters he was always and gentleman and became a friend. There are too many to count Patients and Colleagues whose lives were enriched by Dr. Hunt. He was a positive force in whatever he choose to do. I learned many things from Tom and used those to advance the knowledge of Growth Factors in Tissue Regeneration and Repair. When one stands on the shoulders of giants, one can see forever. Tom...

Super friendly, warm and supportive
TK was an endless resource

I'm sad

I am saddened and overwhelmed with memories of Dr. Hunt who guided me in dealing with an adenoid cystic carcinoma when seven months pregnant in 1974. He removed the tumor the day after delivery of a healthy girl, and guided me about radiation treatment during the three months before we moved to Brussels, Belgium.

I saw Dr. Hunt yearly until 2000. I am so grateful to him for his reassurances during a scary time for me and his very caring approach for my health. This year I turn 80,...

To the Hunt family,
Both my father John C Hutchinson MD and I, Ann Hutchinson RN, JD, had the honor of knowing and working with Tom. I am saddened to hear of his passing. Know that our family is thinking of you during this difficult time. Ann
