Thomas Lavin

Tom Lavin was a brilliant and accomplished person as an individual, much admired; with his equally brilliant and accomplished wife Cathy Koo, they made an admirable, elegant, and awesome couple who I have always greatly admired since our days together in Ralph Snyderman's lab...am sorry I just learned of Tom's passing in the Duke magazine today. Some of my happiest memories are of times together in the lab, at the famous Koo-Lavin parties, and of discussions that transited the universe in...

Tom was an exceedingly decent and brilliant colleague I shall miss dearly.

so sorry to hear of tommy's passing. I grew up with Tommy and Jimmy and always admired your family.mom and dad knew the lavin's...all moving to longmeadow around the same time. It is always a melencholy moment when mates as far back as junior high pass on. Tommy will be missed and fondly remembered.I know his family,and his 2 brothers, will carry his memory in their hearts.

We were saddened to hear of Tom's passing. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.
