Thomas E. BERNDT M.D.

I was Tom's tap dance teacher for 13 yrs. He was dedicated and enthusiastic and often added to the creative process. He was up for anything I asked him to do. When we did dance to a song from "Aladdin" he was the Genie and took the role very seriously. He got a skull cap and blue body paint to transform himself into the character. I loved Tom. He always had a smile on his face and was a great friend. My heart goes out to Patty, Ben, and Kerrie. He was such a special man.
