Dear Sandi, Debbie & Jon,

Bob has kept us posted on Tom's illness, but we didn't realize how bad it has been the past few months.

I recall the many dinners at Carolyn and JM for the holidays with the Kully boys and Newman clans all together.

Tom was a wonderful husband and father. We hope you will see better times in the future.
