Patricia
I was so sorry to hear of Toms passing. I am aware of the Love the two of you share. Please know that we mourned with you. I have been longing to speak with you. We still have your Christmas card to Joshua. I responded in a letter, but did not get a response.
My phone # is 302-897-8622.
Hope you get this message!
God Bless You!

Tom and I were classmates at St. Joe's in the early 60's. We shared a common interest in English Lit and theatre and participated in two of the school plays', Brother Orchid and Arsenic and Old Lace. Our teacher, Tom Tell who was also the Drama Coach took an interest in us and encouraged our participation. Interesting to note that both of us went on to careers in teaching as I taught English for 36 years in Buffalo. Though we hadn't maintained a relationship through the years it is...
