Thomas A. Aldrich

Sending belated condolences. Mary Esther Parker

My father, T/Sgt Albert (Al) Donati was his Enlisted Aide. As a family, we followed Major General and Mrs. Aldrich from Lajes AB, Azores to Scott AFB and finally Travis AFB.

Dear Aldrich Family,
I only knew Tom and Ginny in their latter years at Fremont Presbyterian Church, but knowing them brightened my days! I saw in Tom a wonderful follower of our Lord, Jesus Christ. And like Jesus, Tom was a humble man, who always spoke with authority, compassion, and conviction. I praise God for Tom (and Ginny) and the great privilege of knowing them.
