I had just met Tom and he was so gregarious, skilled, and passionate about his work. Very proud of his daughter and grandchild. I am so sorry that he left so quickly. I pray for the peace of Jesus over the family.

I'm heartbroken to hear about Tom's passing. I met him in HS and he was a lifeline for me throughout. We kept in touch through the years. I'll always remember his smile, great talks and him telling me, "I don't think that's a good idea." lol. Luckily I have many memories of him to keep me going. You'll always be in my heart "Teck." I'll miss our yearly birthday texts to each other and the conversations that made our days special. My deepest thoughts and prayers to Tom's kids. He was truly...
