Dear Martha, Alex, Maria and Koukla,
My sister Aleta and I were planning on coming to Tommy's Memorial Service last Sunday but then the ice storm prevented us from getting there. Tommy and all of you have a special place in our hearts. Our sisters, Kim, Tracy and Kristin, have already written to tell you how our family feels about you and Tommy. As the only 2 Ledoux girls still living in Vermont, Aleta and I really wanted to see you and give you hugs from ALL of us. Whenever I think of...

Les and I were sorry to hear of your dads passing. He was an awesome role model. We know how much he ment to you. May memories bring smiles to your faces. Use these memories and pass them on to the younger members of the family so that they realize how important your heritage is to your family. We are in San Francisco and wish that we could be with you during this time. God Bless

My father had the utmost respect for this man and he knew without a doubt that Tommy would do all he could to make my wedding complete. Tommy could make you feel like the most...
