Update - October 04, 2006: In December of 2005, the Department of Anthropology at Emory
University established a permanent award in Trevor's name. Named the
"Trevor E. Stokol Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Research",
it is being given to the student with the best senior research project that
includes a Senior Honor Thesis. This award is in recognition of
Trevor's contribution to the department. The first recipient received the award on May 2nd of 2006. "I am pleased with this recognition of Trevor's impact on
our lives. I am sure that Trevor's memory will inspire others to
emulate his accomplishment in biological anthropological research. As I
look at the plaque and the student who just received the award, I smile
inwardly at my memory of Trevor and Abby at work in the lab and realize how
special they were." George J. Armelagos Goodrich C.

him and put them on a page on my website.

expression of gratitude to everyone who responded. We will be getting back to
you after we have had a chance to speak to Barbara when she feels up to it
and decide how to handle the coordination
