Please accept my sympathy in the loss of one so dear to you. Tommy was a classmate of mine at WFHS & was always so friendly. My last memory of him was at our reunion as I watched him teaching others to Shag. I am blessed to read of his legacy to you & your children.

My dearest cousin Judy. Am sorry to hear about Tommy and all that you yourself have been through. I think of all of you often and miss seeing and hearing from everyone.
I just know how happy Tommy is right now free of pain and laughing with all of the family members.
My prayers will be with you during this time and from the heart now that the Lord will not lay anything on our heart that we cannot handle.
All my love and prayers to all.
