Not sure what to say?

Tom was a hero to me. He taught me how to organize my work, work like a dog, love every minute of it, & love the USA. I still have the plaque he gave us in my home office that says “Time, Tide & Formation Wait for No Man.” Thanks for everything you did for me. I’ll see you in heaven.

Tom was one of the smartest crew members on the Birmingham. I’m sorry to hear of his passing. I was also impressed on how well he played piano. My prayers are with you.

Tom was a great shipmate and one of the most intellectual and funny guys I met during my time in the navy. I had the privilege to share service with him on two different submarines during my time in the Navy. Rest in peace my friend

Fine Sailor. He will be missed!

Rest in peace my friend.

Sorry for your loss Andrew.... Your father was quite a man...We love you ❤

I am so sorry to hear of Tom's passing. Tom was a great friend and mentor to me for many years at the Department of Energy. Tom loved his work at the DOE and truly made a difference in every program he worked in. One of his best known projects was the High Level Waste Environmental Impact Statement. At the time, this was said to be one of the best organized and thorough EIS documents the DOE had ever produced. He also made many lasting contributions to the environmental cleanup programs...

Rest in peace with honor and gratitude for your service.
