I was devastated to hear today of Tommy's death. We were good friends in high school; he always watched out for me and was like a big brother. I often depended on him for an honest opinion and knew that hanging with Tommy would always mean a fun time and lots of good music. We stayed in touch throughout our careers in advertising. I've thought of him since I left NYC and the agency world and regretted we lost touch. To Mr. & Mrs. Nicholas and the whole family; his loss is deeply felt.
