Dear Aunt Valeria and Family,
I was very sorry to hear that Uncle Tommy lost his battle, and I send my sincere sympathy. The family and the world have lost a wonderful man-one who lived his life to the fullest. Truly a "people person", he gave each of us the gift of his warmth, wit, and wisdom. He will be missed by all of us who loved him, and his memory will be honored by every member of the very extended Mulvey clan. Our prayers and thoughts are with you.

Dear Valeria & Family,
I'm so very sorry to read of Tom's passing. He was my first boss at Supportive Services in 1976 and took me with him to the Labor Management Council thereafter. Tom always encouraged me to develop my potential and believed in me. I have lost a great mentor and friend. Though I hadn't seen Tom in years, I will cherish the fun all of us had working together with him. I'm sorry for your loss.
