Dear Judy, I am shocked & saddened to learn of Tommy's sudden death. We were friends for over 40 years. Now is the time to think of all the good times you shared with him, a while he can not be replaced, I truly believe you will see him again in a better place. Should you need anything please don't hesitate to call. I wish I had known of his passing so that I could have paid my respects in person, but I just found out today. Stay strong and know that you and your family are in my prayers, with sympathy & love, Bill & Joanne
