Tom Flournoy, avid cyclist and engineer, dies at 69
Tom Flournoy died in his sleep the morning of Oct. 27, 2024. He was 69. He was born in Washington, D.C. After graduating from Woodbridge Senior High School and Old Dominion University, he launched a successful career as a professional engineer, specializing in transportation projects from planning to final design, according to a statement from his partner.
Projects he worked on included roadways, highways, bridges, transit facilities, commuter rail, and bike and pedestrian facilities.
Many, if not most, were in the D.C. area, including Arlington County, which became Tom’s home in 1989. In his last position as VP at STV Inc., Tom was instrumental in starting and growing STV’s D.C.
office, which is still thriving. Tom was justifiably proud of his career as an engineer, during which he acted as a mentor to many younger engineers, launching them on successful careers of their own.
