I was so sad to hear about Tom's passing. Life is too short and my only regret is I didn't spend enough time with my classmate.

My prayers are for the family.

I'm glad I got to talk with Tom before I moved. As kids we all played together alot and I still remember all the time spent at Aunt Ida's house. I use to talk with Tom when he'd come in from his mail run when ever I chanced across him in town. He'll be missed by me.
