I am saddened by Tom's passing. I know that he will be missed by a lot of people. I have been a very interested follower of his progress on the Hydristor for the last few years. It is unfortunate that he is not able to see his inventions implemented.

We were very sad to hear of Tom's passing. Tom was a school friend from Stella Elementary School and Johnson City High School. We grew up together in the same area of Binghamton, the First Ward, Polish Heaven.
Our Condolences to his family. Rita and Gordon Yeates
