Tom was an excellent example of what a real man should be.... As a sales representative selling packaging and food processing equipment, he was competitor of mine .... But always friends.

Condolences to the Gooding family on their loss. Although I did not now Tom well I was a friend of his wife, Louise, for many years. I know he will be sorely missed!

Condolences from myself, and my family, on the loss his family is facing. Tom and I first got to know one another sharing office space on Hutchins St ,then later on the pool deck as our boys played water polo for LHS! I never saw him without a smile! He was a very sociable and intelligent man! He once gave me the use of a condo in Capitola, for a whole week, free, to take my kids to the beach!! He was very generous and his friendship will be missed!

We were sorry to hear of Tom´s passing and had hoped to attend his celebration of life. However, Ken was admitted unexpectedly to the hospital for a pacemaker this week. Tom was a great neighbor and friend. We always enjoyed both him and Louise and knew them for around 50 years. Rest in peace, Tom.

Tom and I attended UC Davis. He was always happy to see me at yard sales, one of his favorite pastimes. Condolences to his family.
