My brother, my friend....It's hard to believe you've been in your Heavenly home for 13yrs now. You are thought of often, your laugh and smile are such a joy to remember. Your love of Dogs and your Integrity that my sons still remember while living with you.
Hugs to Daddy as I'm sure you both are helping someone. I love the signs you both give me letting me know you're near. Especially Dad's on July 2nd. Please tell him THANK YOU
LOVE YOUS

Miss you brother so much, we were thinking about you and talking about you on the day you departed, many years later. All your sister rode our bikes to Cortez Park in Phoenix and saw a little lake and ducks, I remember how much you loved the little lake near your house in Ahwatukee! I think of you whenever I see Red roses, especially the ones that grow around my house that you loved the smell of ! They grow every year so I can remember you! Love you so much Tommy and one day I will see you again! Have fun with Dad and Jerry in the meantime! I also hope you get to hear Luciano Pavaroti lots in Heaven, as he followed you there a few months after you left us. I remember that you liked him! Love you lots!

Tommy,
Can't believe you are really gone, the world is an emptier place, Heaven is lucky to have you and enriched by your presence. My Dad always says "there are no ex-Marines, only Marines not on active duty" I'm glad you are "on duty" waiting diligently for us all to arrive. Thanks for the ride it was great to be your room mate, Toga parties and all. You are loved and missed. See you on the other side.

Dear Tommy,
I know you don't want us to be sad now, but it is hard as we miss you. Thank you for allowing me to be close to you these past months, as I said, it was my pleasure and I am grateful. Now you can start to make a home for all of us when we join you up in heaven, in the meantime, enjoy being with your grandparents and godparents. Love you!

Dear Sexton Family,
I was able to be-friend Tom during my short days at Camelback High School. It is with a heavy heart that I now have to say good-by to a good man. I was thinking only the other day that it will be 28 years since we all grew up and what stories we could tell. I hope that all the many thoughts and well wishes you receive tell you about the kind of person Tom was and that his memory will live on.
May g-d bless you and keep you all the days of your life.

My deepest sympathy to my Aunt Annette, Uncle Tommy, and all my Sexton cousins. I remember Tommy as a baby, and feel the loss of yet another family member. His grandma, Aunt Mary Jane, and Uncle Thad will be among those gone before him who will greet him in their arms. My heart goes out to all of you for he is gone too soon.
