Tom, I never was fortunately enough to have met your father but Fred my husband did and he tells me he was a great person full of fun and live. Looking at the photo albums I can see how much love you all had for each other and I know he will be missed. Let all those wonderful memories keep him close to your hart and may his memory bring a smile just like he would have liked. Our sincere sympathy,

Dear Denise,
Prayers to you and your family. You may not recall but I met you and Tom this past January in Kissimmee when you and Tom were at the NCRS Corvette event. It was such a pleasure to talk to you and Tom when you were there looking at our car. Tom and I kept in touch on occasion talking about the car search, and conversing on the internet forums. We were all happy for Tom when he found his dream car and how enthusiastic he was. The Corvette community sorrows and we will miss our friend Tom. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.....

With Deepest Sympathies,
Rich
