Marjory, I just read of Tom's passing tonight, and I wanted to pass on my sincerest condolences. It's funny that he and I never met face to face, but I knew he was a special man just by our conversations on the telephone. He certainly helped me maintain my sanity on many occasions! If you should ever need to contact me, you can do so at my email address [email protected] He and my mother Eileen are having some good laughs in Heaven now. Love to you and the boys.

Met Tom when he was president of Pacific Union College's Men of Granger (MOG). He had the manners already of a mature gentleman. Several years later I had the pleasure of briefly making the acquaintance of Marjory Dunscombe, Tom's wife to be, then a nursing student at Loma Linda University, who had the most wonderful dimpled smile. And what a pleasure it was forty-some years later for my wife Jan and I to run into the Hilliers at a bash thrown by Stewart Bainum in June of 2012 for his friends...

Visiting our dad, Richard Baker, we learned of Tom's passing and are so very sorry. Our boys, Michael & Rick, went to school with Todd & David. Please know that Tom was loved and that we care deeply. Michael & Todd's friendship ran deep, and drew us closer to your family.

Yes, a Prince of a man. He had the rare quality of making everyone feel special. We certainly did, he always had that wonderful smile on his face and even on the phone, you could actually hear that smile.
We feel honored to have known him and will keep the family in our hearts and prayers.

Condolences to his sweet family who is.left behind to hold up his legacy. I found Tom to be a man of honor, honesty, & integrity in his life & the way he lived his life & the way he treated his fellow man. We have lost a great man. God gained a good Angel for sure. Thinking of and praying for his loyal wife & family during this time & on. Loved this family so much.

I really enjoyed getting to know Tom over the last year or so. I had the opportunity to give him his last flight review. I will always treasure the memory. May Gods blessings be upon your family. I regret not being able to attend the public visitation as I am out of state.
