I had the pleasure of meeting Tom on a couple of occasions. He was a kind, gentle person with a heart of gold.

He opened his heart to Ohan and made him feel part of his family and for this we are truly grateful.

I know that you will be forever present in the lives you touched and the memories will last a lifetime.

Continue to keep Jenn safe and give her the strength and guidance to help her through this difficult time.

God Bless you Tom - you will truly be missed.

We had some great times over few but wonderful years. I was so looking forward to so many more. Ghost talks, baseball games, music, movies. We'll just have to wait a little longer.. You will be missed greatly Tom.

A one of a kind Tom moment was when he met my husband and I in Las Vegas for an IHL allstar game. While we were walking around we saw a goaltender Wendall Young. Tom walked up to Wendall and started poking him in the chest. Wendall asked what are you doing...Tom replied "checking you for holes" Classic Tom moment that I will treasure always....you will be missed.

I met Tom way back in high school. We were in Belles & Beaus together. He was a very sweet person. He was alway so cheerful and happy. It's so sad that he was taken from us so young. Heaven myst have been short an angel. My condolences to his entire family. He will missed dearly by his numerous friends and his loving family.
