Thomas Edward Gould Jr.

My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Gould family. Tom and I worked together for many years while he was at DTCC and I was at UNC CH. He had passion for education and all he did. He came to work happy each day and his wit was infectious. He will be missed.

Prayers for Tom´s family, friends, and his colleagues at PCC. He has been such a positive force in NCCCS and will be missed.

My sincere condolences to the family. I'm honored to have known Tom and play a role in recruiting him to PCC. His influence will live on for many years to come. May God bless your family during this time of loss.

My heartfelt sympathies to Tom's family. I knew Tom for 20 years in working with the community college system. He was an inspirational leader. He helped me be a better leader; he encouraged me, and believed in me. I will truly miss him.

In loving memory of a wonderful man who was consistently professional, caring, a faculty/staff/student advocate, passionate about community college education, and the epitome of a servant leader. Truly my honor to have known and worked with Dr. Gould. Thank You for sharing this special man with us...!

Dr. Gould was one of my first instructors at Durham Tech (Public Speaking). I had just moved to NC. His witty and sarcastic sense of humor was one that I loved. Our conversations were full of banter and when I started working at Durham Tech 12 years later - I looked forward to opportunities to interact with him. He will be missed, and I appreciate his life. THANK YOU Dr. Gould.

My sincere condolences to the entire Gould family.
Dr. Gould has provided me with silent wit and laughter that comes from only New Jersey grown. I will miss him dearly, on campus, especially during the upcoming Phi Theta Kappa Induction Ceremony and Student Government Association Events. Dr. Gould will always be in my memories. He has empowered me to do more and not settle for less. Thank you for sharing him with me and Pitt Community College.

I worked with Tom at Durham Tech. He was my dean and direct supervisor during the last two years before my retirement. Tom was certainly one of a kind, but we had a great relationship. I will always have fond memories. He will surely be missed.

As a faculty member at PCC, I worked very closely with Dr. Gould. Rarely have I worked with someone so driven, so focused and so passionate about the growth of our campus and success of our students at Pitt Community College. A cloud of shock and sadness engulfed our entire campus when Dr. Rouse, PCC President, sent the announcement of Dr. Gould´s Passing on the morning of Thursday 2/9. My heart grieves for his loved ones, his family, his friends and our PCC campus and entire community. His legacy will live on through the solid foundation he established on the campus of PCC, the community and across the state through his selfless servant leadership and passion for the community college system. Thank you Dr. Gould for inspiring and encouraging us all. Rest In Peace....
