I first met Tom when we were students at MATC both in the television production program. He was one year ahead of me but in the same as a brother of mine who was also enrolled in the same field of study. Tom was always looked up to because he was a little older than the rest of us kids who were straight out of high school. I always looked up to him as he was a basketball ref and I was into sports. I last saw Tom about a dozen years ago when I saw him at the company I was working for at the time. He was always gracious and friendly and it was an unexpected pleasure to see him. A good man has found his reward in heaven.
