I just heard of Tom's passing and I was saddened to hear of it. Many of us with long VA careers started out at about the same time back in the early to mid 70's. In that respect I was a contemporary of Tom's although my VA career took a different route from Tom's.

As a former co-worker, I want to express my condolences to Tom's family and to his friends in the hope that they can find strength in the support of one another.

Dear Linda, Brian and Coleen...I am so sad and think of Tommy and you every day. The fun times we shared on George Street will never be forgotten...I pray for Tommy to finally rest in peace and knowing Tommy...he's singing to the Lord and sitting with the ones he so loved that went before him. God Bless
