Dr. Raymond E. Taylor - October 19, 1929 to July 7, 2011

It is with great sadness that TPRL announces the passing of our friend and coworker Dr. Raymond E. Taylor on July 7, 2011. Dr. Taylor was a tireless worker that devoted over 50 years to the pursuit of thermophysical properties measurements and the creation of new measurement techniques. His contributions to the thermophysical world will still be remembered years from now. Even though the last two years his health was in decline and he was unable to be in the laboratory to write reports and perform measurements he still communicated his interest when visited at his residence. Our condolences are with his family in this difficult time. A memorial service will be announced at a later date. The staff at TPRL still continues his work and dedication in the pursuit of quality thermophysical properties measurements and new measurement techniques.

A memorial service was held at University Place, West Lafayette, on Saturday, August 27, 2011 at two o'clock. Thanks to all that attended.
