Not sure what to say?

Tom was the best brother/friend anyone could ask for. Always had time for you and your family, loved all of his nephews and nieces. Was the person you could count on for anything, loved the outdoors and going places, especially if it involved sports and recreational events. Playing video games and going bicycling. Lived for Philly sports teams. We love you, Tom.

He would always spend time watching movies or playing game with me. I remember staying up late playing call of duty...

My first best friend in this life. I am gutted. I will love and remember you forever, Tom. You were a great brother and the best Uncle to my kids and everyone else's. I hope you are at peace now. I'm thankful that I created this video for you when you turned 40. I will be looking for you in my dreams.

I'll never forget the time you had me watch Top Gun. I was maybe 8 or 9 and you knew I wasn't playing attention so you gave me a live closed captions play by play. It's actually now one of my favorite movies (I didn't appreciate it until I was older.) Your love of movies amazed me as a kid - I was always so impressed how you knew each actors name. I loved going by Uncle Joes and seeing you there too. I wish I was talking to you right now and not like this. That is my biggest regret - not...

I always enjoyed spending time and talking with Him at the house on Salmon St. The conversations we had would sometimes would last till 2 am which I always cherished that time spent with Him. This is just one of the silly pics of I have of Tom and I . I a
