I am very shocked to hear of Tom's passing. I just had a beer with him at the legion in the beginning of October, or maybe late September. I worked with Tom at WMM and had great respect for him. We shared a fondness for MSU and he was always quick to ask what my boys were up to. My thought and prayers are with you Barbara and the rest of the family.

So sorry to hear about Tom´s passing. Every year my family would rent an Air BnB in Grand Haven and we would run into Tom jogging on the pier. This year, Tom and I shared a few beers at the American Legion. It was great to see him again and share stories! He looked so good and healthy! We will definitely miss him.

Since I was younger I passed my time with cousins Jimmy, Johnny, Steph and Billy. We were not allowed to play in the great world game of RISK with you or my brother Henry or cousins Mary and Joseph. We had to actually...

I was saddened at the news of Tom´s passing. As high school friends and basketball teammates, we spent hours together, on and off the court. He even taught me how to water ski. I will always remember the time we spent together. My deepest sympathies to Barbara and the whole Back family.
