“ On behalf of everyone here at Prophysics, and very much also personally (having first met Tom back in 1997 when I first started at Vicon), I'd like to extend my sincerest condolences to Cindy and the rest of the family. We have lost a friend, a founder, a gentleman, a scientist - Tom was simply one of the nicest people I have ever met. From the early years in hardware to the latter years being the oracle of everything related to regulatory issues, Tom was always both extremely knowledgeable and willing to help, no matter how complex the issue - and always with a smile and a laugh. Rest in peace, Tom - I will miss you. ”
