I worked with Tom. He was always friendly and very knowledgeable. He always made time for a chat... a joy to work with.

I will always remember Tom and his determination and fight. He was an inspiration to me. He would stop by my office every time he returned to work from being out for an extended period of time. It was a joy to see him and talk to and with him. We often shared stories about our children which were rather interesting. Nora, my prayers are with you and the little ladies. If you need anything don't hesitate to call.

My name is Sue Travis and I am the receptionist here at Materion. I have worked with Tom by seeing him everyday when he was well. He was always sweet and very nice to me. I thought the world of him and when he got sick I prayed for him every single day. I will miss him greatly.
To his family by deepest condolences. Be grateful for the time he was in your lives. Remember how much he loved you and how much you will always love him. He truly was the very best.

What I remember most about Tom is how observant he was. Every writer has that tape recorder or film camera in the back of their mind. It records experiences to use in later work. Usually others' experiences. You remember things that most people try not to notice, like a scar wiggling across a girl's collarbone, or the moment a generous friend stiffed a waiter on a tip. Often, you thinly veil, then expose those secrets as "revelations" in fiction, drama or poetry. But really, you just...
