Not sure what to say?

I'm so sorry to hear about Tom. I met him in 1993 while working at Comstock Community Center and enjoyed the opportunity to see him through my current work at Senior Services. He always made sure to say Hi when he saw me and to take time to chat. He will be missed.

I can't tell you how saddened I was to hear of Tom's passing. Throughout all the years he came to see me, he never forgot the "tootsie roll" that was a standing joke between us. Tom was,without a doubt, one of my favorite people and one I was always happy to see every year. You could always tell by the way he spoke about his wife and his family how deeply he loved and cared for them, and I know he will be missed very much by them and all of us that were lucky enough to cross paths with him.

Tom, you had a very nice memorial. Your family had wonderful things to say, and we knew you were loved greatly. I miss the days of the gym, and I will miss our talks outside. Watch over us all. Your friend and neighbor.

Maxine I am so sorry to hear of Tom's passing. You both were always so nice to me! I appreciated your friendship. Please accept my sincere condolances.

Our family will miss the sight of Tom in the back yard, mowing the lawn, chatting over the fence. He is part of my childrens memories, and we are all saddened by his death. Our thoughts are with you, Maxine, and your family. God Bless.

I will miss you dearly Tom. You were the guy with the camera at all the Community Center events, and so much more. No matter where I tried to hide, you always managed to get a picture of me! Thank you for all your kindness through the last 10 years I have had the pleasure of knowing you. My prayers go out to your family and friends, and May God Bless them. We are all better for having had you in our lives!

We're going to really miss our friend and neighbor. Our sympathy goes out to the family.
