I'm so sorry Jimmy to learn of your son. I've thought about you and your family often since you moved from Tonawanda. I tried messaging you through a friends FB earlier this year, but still have not hear from you. Embracing special memories of yesterday. You will always be a friend of mine. My thoughts and prayers are with you still.

With Heartfelt Condolences,

To the family:
My deepest sympathies go out to you all. I lost my brother in '05, Mike Conway, who was a friend of Tommy's. I clearly remember him calling Tommy "Beatles". There is nothing anyone can do to ease your pain...just know he's looking down on you and hopefully is with all of those we have lost...and we will see them all again. My prayers are with you all.

We were so sorry to hear about Tommy. We truly understand the depth of your loss, having lost our son, Josh, only 8 months ago. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you. Take comfort from those around you and let them help you. If we can do ANYTHING for you, please let us know. We recently moved from Mechanicsville but are still in the area. Our daughter, Dara, went to school with Deena. If Deena would like to talk to her, let us know. Take care and may God be with you.

JB and family,
We just heard about Tommy. No words can ease the pain and sadness you feel at this time, we know that. A parent's worst nightmare is a loss of their child. We are so sorry that you are living this now.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Please know that you will be held in our hearts, not just today but in the days and months that follow.
Hold tight to your family and treasure the memories/times you shared with Tommy.
Those treasured memories are what nothing can steal from you.
May you surround yourselves with loving family and friends to find the strength to make it through this tragedy.
With sincerest sympathy,

(Zprint03 and DebsZoo)

Deena and family,
We moved in Raven Run when Tommy was about 4 and lived there for 15 years. I watched him grow up as well as Deena. My daughter April went to school with him from Battlefield to Lee Davis, my son Matthew with Deena through Oak Knoll. I can't tell you how very sorry and broken hearted I am.

Deena, I used to babysit you and watched you grow up to be the creative talented young woman you are now and will be thinking and praying for you. Please let me know if you need anything. Take one day at a time.
