I knew Tom via his interest in computational modelling. This was a new area and I was impressed how an older scientist would push hard to learn something new. I loved working with him and was always impressed how knowledgeable, kind and supportive he was. I was hoping to reconnect with Tom as I needed some immunology help, and sadly discovered that Tom had passed. Tom will be missed as a colleague and friend.

Having not had the privilege of knowing your husband and father I am in awe of his several accomplishments. My heartfelt sadness lies in the fact that like myself so many others did not realize the impact Dr. Tom Edgington made in the field of life science. His several accomplishments and dedication are much appreciated. I'm sorry for your loss and hope that you know his impact has made a difference in the lives of people he never knew. Sincerely, Amy Van Buskirk

Dear Kassy and Scott, so sorry to hear of your Dad’s passing.
My husband was employed by Corvas and I was a good friend of your Mom. We met Scott one Christmas Eve as we dropped off a gift and the two of you were home for the Holidays. My husband Bill worked with your Dad and his Company until it almost folded . We did keep n touch via Christmas card ms for awhile. But still we remember your Dad with heartfelt thoughts. Each Christmas I always think of your Mom and Dad as I hang the Christmas ornaments they gave us through the years. It truly is a loss but he will be remembered lovingly by we who knew him. May your memories help carry you through this sad time.
Lovingly Cathy and Bill Ripka.
Friends from Corvas
