To Tommy, my friend, my neighbor. I've only known Tommy for a little over a year but I love him very much. I'm going to miss Tommy for a very long time. I wish there would've been more time to share with him but I know he's in a place where we can't come close to imagining. Brother Tommy, I love you and already am missing you. You're the closest person I've had to a friend.
To the Family, my prayers are with you all. God sends us and he takes us, we all have to remember when your job is done on Earth you begin a whole new journey for eternity. It's unfortunate to meet the family on these terms but, it's a pleasure to meet each of you that I have and hopefully whom I will.
Last but not least, to Vickie, you were his everything. I can't ever remember either of you without the other. I wish I knew the words that would come close to comfort for you. If you need anything, please let me know. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I love you and am truly sorry for your loss.
