Rest in Peace

It has been a great privilege to work with Tom. We wish him peace and his family the solace of fond memories and reminders of his great skills by the treasures he left behind both in wood and in spirit.

I and my sister are so blessed to have been in his presence. He was still so handsome and a gentleman that smiled so big and and we felt his love and charachter even though we were jsut visiting aunt Marion. Heaven is rejoicing and Jesus is talking him about their wood working. Love to you Aunt Marion, Tom and Fanny. Love Margie and Pam , Tia and all of our families!
