To Jeanne and the Tomassone Family,
My love and heartfelt sympathy go out to all of you for the untimely loss of Tommy.
I will always have fond memories of him as a pudgy little kid running around Field Avenue with the rest of us and will never forget the awful day that he got his fingers shut in the car door in your driveway. I don't ever remember seeing you father so mad! That horrible moment is especially memorable because Jeanne and I were blamed for it (perhaps rightfully so) and were punished for a very long, long time - or so it seemed (lol)!! I really think that fact helped Tommy's poor fingers to feel better again sooner (lol)!!
You are all in my thoughts always and will be in my prayers often. I hope you can take some comfort in knowing that he is now in a better place.
