Noe,

My deepest condolences. Tom was such a nice, kind man. I'm so thankful that he started St. Mary and for the time I had there. His legacy lives on, know your family has blessed and inspired many people.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. I met you both through Joan Cotton.
Sincerely,
Betsy Boudreau

Noe and Family.

As you well know, my mom and dad were (are) great fans of Tom's. Even though my interactions with Tom on the board of MCA, and the endowment committee were limited, he always exuded an aura of calm beneficence that I recall even as a youngster! It was a pleasure to know this kind gentleman, and best wishes to you all as you celebrate his wonderful life.

Best, David Caulkins

Noel, I hope that your fond memories and stories of Tom will provide some measure of comfort to you and your family during this difficult time. I truly enjoyed knowing and working with Tom during my tenure as CEO at St. Mary Land & Exploration, and afterward, SM Energy.

Sincerest condolences,
Tony & Gloria Best

Uncle Tom was a great and loving man and I will miss him terribly. I love you Noe, Chel, and Lucy.

I have many fond childhood memories of Tom as a dad, as Natasha and I were the best of friends. We spent many gorgeous days in Aspen in both summer and winter and he was always smiling and delighted in his children and our silliness. He was kind, funny and made me feel like one of his own. A day doesn't go by when I don't think of Natasha and our fun and deep friendship and how Tom and Noey made such a loving home for everyone to enjoy. I send love and light to all the family and want them...

Such fond memories of Tom as a loving father to his girls. My condolences to you all.
