Rest in Peace, good and faithful servant, I had the great pleasure of renewing my friendship with Tommy about 15 years ago when I found myself running into him repeatedly at Kroger in Denton on Loop 288. He was a few years older than me in school, but we both grew up in Justin. Everytime we saw one another in Kroger we would visit for about an hour. He and his precious friend Garth are special. I know Garth already misses his owner. I am proud to call Tommy friend and so thankful he is in the arms of Jesus. Praying comfort for his family.
