Dear Cathy,
I am very sorry to hear about Tom's passing. Tom was my friend, boss and mentor at Trident and BSG. I loved his wisdom and sense of humor. He was a great man, and he will be missed by all who's life he has touched. God bless you and your family.

Dear Cathy,

I was so sorry to hear of Tom's passing. We still tell stories of our Flower Valley days, and your family is always in many of them (along with some of your recipes that we still use). I'm sorry that I wasn't able to attend the Funeral yesterday (my mom was there) but you were in my thoughts and prayers.

To Cathy and family
It was with great sadness we heard of Tom's death. He was a one-of-kind, heck of a great guy. I had worked with Tom for 6 years at PPC and enjoyed his good humor, council and friendship. We will miss him terribly.
