Not sure what to say?

I miss my cousin Tom Muth so much. It seems my brothers and I were just talking about him the other day. He continues to be a holy inspiration and a wonderful memory. Bless you Marty and the family!! Love Diane Brundrett voyentzie

Dr. Muth was the most impressive professor I ever had at MSU. I had the pleasure of taking 2 of his classes and also being one of his teacher assistants. He challenged me intellectually in ways I never thought possible. I was able to pass that information on to aid other students and apply his teachings in the business world.

Dr. Muth motivated me to start my own Telecommunication Consulting business in which his intellect, passion and desire still fuel me today.

Muth, you were the best professor I've ever had. You forever changed how I looked at the world, how I studied, and you broke my nervousness of speaking in front of crowds. I miss the days of being one of your UA's.

Thanks for everything, Muth.

I just found out about Tom's passing. So sorry about this...the Muth family is in my thoughts. He was a wonderful teacher, and a good person through and through.

Dr. was Muth will always remain to many, the kind face and generous spirit at the Telecommunications Dept., MSU that he was. His intellect, wit and humour and enthusiasm for his work and students will long be cherished and his life celebrated.

I wouldn't have completed my MA in Telecommunications in 2000 at MSU without his guidance and encouragement.

He was also an incredible mentor and parent for many of us who were international students and who often would be found...

A brilliant man who made a lifetime impact on me.

I just read about Dr. Muth's passing away. I'm deeply saddened. I was an international student 6 years ago - and I had the opportunity to work on various projects with him throughout my time at university. Dr. Muth mentored me in so many ways - both in personal and professiona levels. He always believed in me - pushed me to try new things and to lead projects. He believed in me more than I believed in myself. He always has a special place in my heart.

Tom was one of the few professors that really stuck in my mind after graduation. I had him for a few classes, and the one thing I really remember about him was that he really wanted students to succeed on their own terms. He always seemed to find a way to help make it work, no matter what type of student they were. Really a big loss for Michigan State University, but we were fortunate to have him for as long as we did!

Condolences to Tom's family, hopefully all the fond memories...

I'll miss Dr. Muth, and ASCOT and the Telecommunication department will be missing a great ambassador.
