Tom, best boss ever! Working for Shell you had our respect and treated us all well. Everyone knew when we had an award dinner with food and drink, it was your choice, your taste was impeccable! Please wear your golf slacks to heaven, that way we can find you for sure. To Joan and your beautiful family, my heart goes out to you.
