My deepest condolences are extended to Richard's family. He was one of the most gentle, kind human beings I ever met. He gave one the feeling that he was completely at peace with himself, a rare quality indeed. Others walked away from meeting Richard with the feeling that somehow they were a better person for having met him. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance in this difficult time.
Your entire family is in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless.
Dr. Tsou was my anatomy professor at Gordon and the first professor that made me feel that teachers are not just there to teach but to make sure that you learn adn understand the material he was a wonderful teacher and person and it makes me really sad to learn that he is no longer with us. He will be truely missed.
Dr. Tsou, you will be missed by many! You were a great mentor and inspiration!
I am so saddened by the news of Dr. Tsou's passing. I was not the traditional student in that, I did not come straight from High School. I had already earned a Bachelors degree and had some years under my belt. I returned to school for a career change and Dr. Tsou was my first professor at Gordon College. He immediately earned my respect. He was a kind and smart man. I enjoyed his class but more importantly I got to know him as a person. I learned that I was pregnant with my first child in his class and when I had a health scare I went to his office upset and he calmed me down and told me everything would be okay...and he was right. I will miss him.
I am so sad to hear the passing away of Dr Tsou. He used to teach at Gordon college and He was the most kind hearted and respected prof. And it made him sad to see students fail his test. He will be missed very dearly and I extend my heart felt condolences to his family.
My sincerest sympathy to the family of Dr. Tsou. My heart is heavy today at the news of his passing. I am an older student who began at Gordon in the Fall of 2009. I had the immense pleasure of being taught by Dr. Tsou in one of my first classes-Anatomy and Physiology-I. I admired his brilliance, valued his opinion and treasured the time we would chat about things other than A&P. He often spoke lovingly of his family and it was abundantly obvious how much he cared for them. He was a kind, gentle man and I am honored to have known him.
