Dear Tom: I miss you. You were an outstanding advocate, and a kind and sensitive gentleman. I count our acquaintance, both professional and personal, as a gift.

I am saddened to learn of the loss of such an amazing attorney, and friend. No matter how trivial my concern, he was always there with sound advice and kind words.
I would often joke, "I know I'm your smallest sports celebrity client," and he would always reply, "Ah, but you are the most important!" I will truly miss you, my friend. I will always be grateful.

Today we found out that one of the most beautiful men on the face of this Earth was called to jion the angels in heaven my husband Andra and I are devastated by his lost he helped us when we thought that we had no help he was one of the most beautiful people in our lifetime and he will be missed and forever loved the world has lost an amazing angel and to his family the love we have for him was so pure and Godly...

I was very fortunate to be represented by Tom in the courtroom and he did not dissapoint. Brilliant man and I will never forget his services to me and my family. You will be missed. GOD bless you.

I am saddened by the loss of this fine lawyer. Tom gave me my start in the legal career I enjoyed so much. He taught me how to embrace difficult cases and always know my case better than my opponent. Tom challenged me early in my career to go up against some of the toughest opposition and never be intimidated. Most importantly, he demanded compassion for our clients and high ethics in the manner in which we litigated. I will be forever grateful for the opportunities he provided to me.

It breaks my heart to just now hear the news about Tom. I extend my Warmest condolences to his family. I knew him to be a kind and gentle soul and a giant in the courtroom. He was always willing to help his friends in the media with legal questions and problems. But more than that he gave us his friendship. Thank you Tom for always being there when needed, and reaching out and offering kindness without being asked. You were one of a kind. Keep an eye on us from heaven.

A fine lawyer and an excellent man. He helped me more than once. He will be missed but I look forward to seeing Tom again in God's kingdom.
