A Guy Named Tom

Thomas Budzynski was well known for his creativity and achievements, but he was a friend to many who enjoyed his wit and humility. He was both a dedicated scholar and a sensitive human being who put the welfare of others before himself. Despite his widespread recognition as a pioneer, he was always just “a guy named Tom” who was loved and cherished by all who knew him. A tribute is offered to this part of him that endures in memory as much as his numerous contributions.
