Thomas Levin Sussex, BS Med ’57

Thomas Levin Sussex, BS Med ’57, age 78, of Bloomington (Roseville), Minn., passed away January 23. After graduating from high school in his hometown of Hope, N.Dak., he earned his Bachelor in Science in Medicine in 1957 from the University of North Dakota, then a medical degree from the University of Illinois, Chicago in 1960. He pursued further medical training through a fellowship at Yale University in 1963–1964 in his field of obstetrics and gynecology, followed by a practice at the Fargo Clinic. In 1972, a car accident and subsequent stroke resulted in his early retirement from medicine. As a member of the North Suburban Kiwanis and St. Anthony Park United Methodist Church, he was involved in a multitude of volunteer initiatives. He was a lifelong learner and relished a good story or a joke. He was a role model for his ability to live life to its fullest, no matter what the circumstances, and his example will inspire us all.
