Tom was not only a tremendous resourxce when I needed direction but had the heart to understand and be patience. I not only worked with Tom but was privilrged to have him as a confident and mentor. I find this a very sad loss as people like Tom Powers are rare indeed. He was a fine man to all he came in contact with and showed respect at all times.

I am so sorry for your sudden and unexpected loss. Tom spoke so lovingly of you and your family, the holidays you spent together and often of your mother.

I worked with Tom at Teradyne for many years and we became very good friends. I will miss him in my life and so enjoyed him. His laugh, his wonderful wit and the truly caring person Tom was. He made a hugh difference at Teradyne and helped many people over the years. I loved Tom as my dear friend, supporter and confidant.
