Sandy and I are deeply sadden by the loss of Tom. He was a great friend and coworker at HydroChem. I had a great time working with him. I will always remember the RC adventures we had while working at Hydro. They were a blast. Sandy and I lift up Patty and the family in our prayers. He will be missed. We pray for God's strength for his family. Tom you were a winner in many ways.

It was the glory days of becoming men in the Aggie Band that I last saw Thomas. I admired him then and reading of his accomplishments since prove my admiration was not misplaced. My best and condolences to all friends and family.
As with all winners, you will forever be wrapped in that checkered flag, Thomas.

My sympathy to the Thrash family. I go back to Tom's days in the Texas A&M Sports Car Club in the early 80's. To me Tom will be forever that young man who ran his unassuming Chevy II Nova past much more intimidating vehicles to their owners dismay and Tom's delight.

Joyce and Ben,
Dan and I were so sorry to hear about Thomas. I remember the day you brought his Boots for the Core when he was at A&M to the HLP office in Alvin. You were so proud. Our prayers are with you and the family to help you through these times.

I knew Tom through the track and Mazda racing community. He was a racer's racer, tough on the track but a friend off the track. My most sincere condolences go out to his family.

I knew Tom as a competitor in EP. I fondly recall him showing me how he had cobbled together stuff from Home Depot and used it on his car. He then went out and smoked the very best in the country with that stuff. Tom was an excellent driver, a fair competitor and wonderful man to be around. My prayers are with his family. Godspeed Tom

Dearest Family,
I was deeply sadden to learn of Buddy's sudden death. I never had the privilage of knowing Buddy throughout his adult life, though I will always remember the wonderful childhood memories we all shared at Grandma & Grandpa's house. May you find peace and love in the memories you cherish. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
With all my love,

To the Thrash family,
I was so saddened to hear about Thomas. He had just emailed me on Thursday about our high school reunion and expressed how forward he was looking to seeing everyone. I went all through school with him. He was so bright and always very witty.
I will be in prayer for all of you...

Our deepest sympathy to Ben and Joyce and his family. I Remember Thomas in the 80's, when I worked with Joyce in Alvin, as a very polite and friendly young man. So young to leave this world. He is just beyond our vision for a little while, until we see him again. May he rest in peace.God bless you all.

Tom was such a great man. I had the pleasure of meeting Tom back in 2004 at TWS. A friend and I made the venture down to Texas to race on Memorial Day weekend. Being from PA, my friend didn't realize the heat in Texas in May. Tom graciously invited us into his air conditioned trailer so he could recoup and continue to race. From the day forward, Tom was always a good friend. I didn't get to see him much usually only at the runoffs but he was always so nice, friendly and happy. My fondest memory is calling the green for him at Mid-Ohio one year so his dad could stay in pit lane. I can not say enough about Tom as a person and as a fellow racer. He will indeed be missed by so many! Godspeed Tom!
Deepest sympathies to the family.

My heartfelt sympathy to Tom's family and friends.
Though I hadn't seen Tom since our days at A&M I remember him as a fine example of an Aggie Bandsman.
He is missed.

My prayers are with the family. I worked at Hydrochem with Tom - what a wonderful person. Sweet enough to find a baby squirrel in his back yard and have me watch it all day for him at the front desk while he was working. He did so many nice things for me. He will truly be missed.
