Not sure what to say?

Tom, It´s sure hard to believe that four years have passed. Time seems to be flying by the older we get. This was an unfortunate reminder of your loss. I still have fond memories of our friendship through grade and high school. Life seems to throw us some hurdles, I am battling cancer and fortunate to be closing in as a two year survivor.

Can´t believe it´s been a year already. We are celebrating Camelback High School 50 year reunion this weekend and Tom will be missed. I enjoyed knowing Tom at St Thomas and Camelback High. Rest In Peace Tom.

I knew Tom from St Thomas and Camelback High. Great guy and will be missed. Remember seeing his mother at daily mass.

Tom was larger than life and lived his life out loud! Always ready with a huge smile, and an even bigger hug, Tom loved well, laughed easily and gave willingly. He was civic minded and his intense love for his family defined the essence of his soul. Tom was a wonderful husband, great father, terrific friend and exceptional human being. I feel honored to have had a small role in his life. He is truly loved and will be sorely missed.

A great guy that had a smile on his face and a nice thing to say about everybody he met. I knew him from Camelbavk High and later on at the Boys Club meetings and get togethers. I will miss seeing that good person.

I am so sorry to hear of Tom's passing. Tom was my classmate at St. Thomas the Apostle school for 8 years. I don't think I've seen him since, but it is so apparent that he has touched many many lives for the good. I am touched by Tom's good heart and his devotion to Our Lord, as well as his evident love for his wife, children, and grandchildren, and his amazing generosity to those in need.

I will offer my Mass tomorrow for him. May Jesus embrace Tom fully and welcome him into the...

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
