Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road,
to sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We all were meant to learn some things,
but never meant to stay...
Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know.
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting...

Dear Judy,
I became acquainted again with Tommy when he was at St. Mary's and I was volunteering there. Fate just kind of brought us together. We had lots of fun last spring talking about the upcoming reunion. Who would know...he would be able to go and I would not. I saw him again these past 2 Fridays, and had the wonderful pleasure of being able to chat once again. I was privileged to feed him his breakfast, and during that time.....we once again reminised about our Victoria days. ...

Judy, M.C. and Jimmy,
We hope you know how much we loved Tom and that we consider you all family. We're sure you will remember that it was our son J.D. that gave Tom his name--" Tommy Salami" and that our families have shared many wonderful times together over the last 28 years. Tom was a very special man and you all will be in our hearts always. All our love and prayers are with you.

MC and Mrs. Gaulding-
I'm so sorry to hear about Tom. He was such a sweet guy and of course a great softball coach. Many of my favorite childhood memories involve our little league games with Tom coaching us. My thoughts are with you guys and the rest of your family. Take care.
