Not sure what to say?

Joanne, I'm so sorry to hear of Tom's passing. No doubt he's played several rounds of unending golf now. I'm usually good at checking the obits, but no doubt, missed his obit because of working the presidential elections. My sympathy and support to you at this difficult time. If you see this message, please give me a call so that we can talk. I'm trying to find a good phone number for you. If you see this please call me-same number as always. God Bless!

Hi Tom: We were absolutely shocked when we heard about you. We had just talked a couple of days before. Grace & I recalled all the memories we had with you on the putting green & the driving range at Quail Ridge. Well now you have some influence to change some things in this world. Say hi to everybody & by the way can you help us make more putts. Always your friends forever. Don & Grace Bakos ...

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

I already miss Tom very much. Our almost daily phone conversations, being golf league partners for so many years, running the St. Robert league together, taking many golf trips together, and just sharing life's joys and sorrows, all of which are now special memories that I will always cherish. Tom had a unique sense of humor and wit and loved being around others. He was a very religious person with a strong commitment to his faith. Rest in peace my friend.

I thoroughly enjoyed Tom through his many hours for the St. Robert's Golf League, but also his commitment to his spiritual practices as a member of the Centering Prayer Group at St. Robert. I will always remember Tom in a warm and loving way, as I know many, many people will.

I always enjoyed being in a foursome with Tom when playing golf. I knew I would have a good day no matter the golf score. He will be missed.

Tom made everyone feel like his friend. I always enjoyed bumping into him at McDonald´s on Wednesday morning before his regular golf outing, or at the grocery store. He was a fixed presence for many of us and always had something to share.

I will miss Tom very much. His dry sense of humor, his love for the game of golf, his warm friendship. Just a lovely man. See you in Heaven, Tom. Jim Parent

Very sad to hear the news about Tom. Very good golfing pal for many years.
