Not sure what to say?

Shellie, I found out about Tom's passing belatedly. He played a pivotal role as a boss, teacher and mentor in my time as an ASU student. We founded student societies together and he had nominated me for the President's Award. I am deeply sorry for your loss and am grateful that Tom played such an influential role in my life as a student. Thank you and Tom for being there as one of my pillars of support.

Shellie,

Tom was a wonderful individual and a great husband. I am sorry he has departed this world.

I am thinking of you, your family, and your dogs during this time of sorrow. Please know you are in my daily thoughts, my memories, and my prayers.

Avec tout mon coeur,

Johnny Rives

My condolences to you, Shellie and your family, and also to Richard and Carol Reiss. I saw the four of you at our 2014 AHHS reunion. I remember the days when Tommy and Richard taught in Edgewood and their commitment to all the school activities I always found both of them to be inspiring.

What a wonderful partnership you and Tommy shared. You all are in my thoughts.

Shellie, it sounds like you both had an amazing journey together. Im saddened to hear of Toms passing. Life is enhanced by the friendships we make over the years. Paul Forester touched many of our lives and made us better life long students. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Hola Shellie, please accept my condolences on your loss. Tom was always so kind and friendly. I still remember me and Blanca being in San Antonio during Fiesta with like a million people and running into Tom. I love that you and Tom made a lot of great memories traveling and having fun. Many blessings and love from the Casillas Fam.

Shellie, you might not remember me but I worked at SASSLC in the salon! I am so saddened to hear of your husband's passing! You are in my thoughts and prayers! Always loved your joy you brought to all!
