HI Pam and the girls, brothers Mike and Dan,
It's been a year since Tom's time was over here on earth. I have come to understand and believe that in heaven there is no measure of time. It is always just the present. Although we, believers, who are left behind may think it is a long time before we see our loved ones again, I believe it will seem Tom just left yesterday for Him and for us and in this, I find comfort. I am in awe of what is to come for those who believe and know that God is good, faithful and true. May God bless you all your days, here and in the hereafter.
Love always,
Larry Bowers

Terribly said to learn of this today. He was just one of the best human beings you will ever meet. This is just awful.

Tom was an instant friend. Always pleasant and positive; he made you feel special. Someone who listened to you with an understanding that made a connection. I will miss him, his pleasant greating, his ability to connect. Just a great guy. The world needs more like him! My condolences to Pam and the family.

Very sad to hear that Tom is in heaven. My condolences to the family. I met Tom through the Kettering Y's Indian Princess program. What a great man and father. I will never forget the sea food cooked over the campfire.
Blessings, Bill Ewry

Mr. Patterson always welcomed me into his home, even when Kristen and Chelsie weren´t home. I remember so many summer days spending time with him and Mrs. Patterson at their pool. He was always full of great advice and life lessons which he passed on to his girls. He truly will be missed.

What a great person! Always stopped in for my salmon fix and he was always so nice and talkative. He will be sadly missed!

Our hearts are heavy in hearing Tom has passed on. And our hearts are filled with love and compassion for those Tom left behind. If we can be of help, Pam, just ask. Praying and asking for God to come alongside you now and in the days to come...

Have known Tom since elementary school. He and I always got along well and had a special friendship. I am so sorry he has passed. I always enjoyed seeing him at Foremost Seafood and talking about old times and other friends we know. My condolences go out to his family and those close to him. This came as quite a surprise.
