Dear Pam and Family,

I am deeply saddened to learn of Tom’s passing. Tom was a great friend and colleague who embodied a truly unique combination of brilliance and heart. And he was generous with his time and knowledge. No matter how full his own day, he was always available to help me, and anyone else, work through a problem—the doctor was always “in”.

Quick with the joke or bon mot, Tom was also a sentimental guy who genuinely cared about the people he worked with....

Tom's rare blend of common sense and creative insight is missed by all of us lucky enough to have had the experience of his uncompromising wit and intelligence. He is a great role model for how not to take things for granted. I have this image of him standing before St. Peter and explaining how to improve the throughput of souls into Heaven....

Pam,
I consider the priviledge of working with Tom to be one of the highlights of my career with PRC (Northrop Grumman). You probably have never heard about the time Tom asked me to attend a Progam Review at CINCUSNAVEUR.

My husband, Wil Mozingo, and I worked with Tom for many years at PRC and are saddened by his passing. We extend sincerest sympathy to his wife and his family on the loss of this truly good friend and colleague.

Pam,
I had the privilege of working with Tom for only five years, but I recall his retirement celebration at PRC bringing together many of his friends and admirers, some of whom had known him for over 30 years. I already miss Tom's insight in professional areas, but will also miss his wisdom and thoroughly enjoyable personality. My deepest condolences.

Pam and family,

Thinking of you and sincerely hoping that time and pleasant memories will help to ease your loss. Tom will be missed by everyone that had the pleasure of knowing him.

Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in your loss.
We shared with Tom and the family a special love for Queen Lake. Give our sympathy to Jane as well.
Most sincerely, Curt and Carol Erickson

Pam,

My heart is saddened with the news of Tom's unexpected passing. He was a mentor and friend to me at PRC and he will remain fondly in my thoughts and prayers.

May God bless you and your family as you deal with this loss.

Sincerely,
Barbara
