Remembering Tom this week, his great thinking mind and out standing character are fix in my mind. All through the years from childhood on to manhood he was known to me for determination, positive attitude, and quiet good humor. He grew up in a relationally strained family living in foreign lands and different cultures, yet personal fortitude carried him to find success . Appreciated by a wide people spectrum across varied relationships, especially family, friends, co-workers, protégés and...

I was fortunate to have started my career at the Hershey Medical Center with Tom. He was a delight to work with and socialize with and I'm certain is sorely missed. Although I was not at the medical center for very long, I will always remember Tom's smile and fun/friendly approach to life and work! My thoughts and prayers are with all of his family and friends.

I am so sorry to hear of Tom's passing. I just found out today from a high school thing on Facebook.. Tom and Andy were friends of mine from high school. Loved them both. I hung out with Tom and Joe Reader often. Sounds like he went on to do great things. My sincere condolences... Stacy Grill-Ewing

Dear Beth and Anna,
I/we have known Tom since High School, he was a dear friend and he will be missed by all. We are so sorry to hear that he had passed.

Having known the young Tom in high school, and having been blessed to call him a friend, it was obvious early on that he would make his mark in this world.
It is no surprise to me, and I am sure to all who knew him, that that mark would be so profound.
He was the kindest, gentlest person I think I have ever met. His laugh was contagious, his warmth was evident from the moment one met him.
It is again, no surprise, that he devoted his life to helping others, as this was a...

Please accept my condolences. I want to publically acknowledge that I was a "fan" of Dr Ten Have's work. His methodologic articles on longitudinal data, and practical contributions on multicenter studies and other aspects of research design, were very informative to me in my graduate studies and beyond. I was pleased to meet him when he visited Seattle shortly after I began my current position. He was very warm and encouraging to a biostatistician at the beginning of her career.

Please accept my belated condolences. I met Tom many years ago on a trip he made to my company, Eli Lilly. His work in the mental health research was very important and I always tried to read his papers when I saw them in the journals. The statistics community in mental health research has lost a great advocate.
