Our deepest sympathy to all of Tom's family. He was in to have a drink with us just after Easter. He was talking about how much he enjoyed being with all his family on Easter. We wish we would have known of the service for him. He is missed.
I hope Hank is ok. I'm sure he misses Tom.

Very sorry to hear of Tom's passing. Although my contact with Tom was a brief 18 months at AHS, the laughs we shared on and off the football field will always be remember. My sincere condolences to family.

My blessings and thoughts for you and your family. "We'll Be Together Again" as the wonderful tune displays.

Tom was a fellow member of the wrestling team at AHS. I didn't know him well, but remember that he had a wonderful sense of humor, and was a very positive young man. In other words "a really good guy".
