I was lucky to know Tom as a sweet, kind, gentle & loving uncle. My life is richer just from knowing him.
My heart goes out to his family, Ann, Kelly, Denny, Sandra & Shorty who undoubtedly miss him very much.

I am sorry I could not attend the service to celebrate the life he lived and the wonderful person he was. Please know my thoughts and prayers are with all the Carnahans during this difficult time.
