Hi my Angel in Heaven!!! I just wanted to come and say happy almost 48th birthday in Heaven! I still can´t believe this is real and it´s going on EIGHT whole years that my world has been rocked and has never ever been back to `normal.´ I wish you were here I love You SO much and I Miss you SO much! Every now and then, when me, Maddy and Jean talk about you - jean has to step out of the room. I´m sure you know why! We are all still not ok down here!!!! I hope you´re settled in and are happy. Living a pain free life! I wish you´d come visit me sometimes! I you so much it hurts!

We love and miss you very much. It's hard to believe that you are no longer with us. We will remember you always and you will forever be in our hearts. I'm so glad we connected again and were able to see you and hug you before God called you home. I am glad I had the chance to tell you that I loved you and hear you say, "I love you too Aunt Terri, very very much." That was so sweet and I'll never forget it. We'll love you 4ever! Aunt Terri, Uncle Herman and Casey.

It will never get any easier, I've figured that out. My son I always told you I didn't know how I would make it without you - now I'm left to try to figure that out - you were my rock, my go-to person when I had a problem or when i was mad or just frustrated and I could always count on you for support. What am I supposed to do now? My heart is broken and my pain at knowing I won't see you again in this life is actually a physical pain that won't stop - there is no medication that can stop it or even lessen it. I keep remembering the pain you endured for the last few days of your life and it just makes me realize what a strong person you were. My son, until we are reunited again, I will try to be as strong as you were and I have gone back to church just so I can feel closer to you and pray that God has wrapped you in his loving arms and taken all your pain away. I love you more than live itself and miss you even more. Now I know why Mom's aren't supposed to outlive their children. You are still my rock in heaven.
How you can show support

Tommy,even though we knew what we meant to each other & we got to express it even more on our last visits.I still can't help to think I've might of missed something or just simply didn't say enough.U were my B/F & you've been by my side since the day we've met.Nothing will ever be the same.My heart will continue to hurt until the day we meet again.I can tell u I love u over & over again,but that will never be enough.We did that all of the time,but really we didn't have to,because no matter what we always knew w/out ever saying a word.That's true friendship,through the good times & the bad times(& lord knows we had enough)we had that special bond words alone could never express.I will always treasure every moment we had together & u will never leave my heart,Tommy! "NEVER" I LOVE YOU ALWAYS & FOREVER T-BIRD❤

God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not meant to be.
So he put his arms around you
And whispered 'Come to Me'.
With tearful eyes we watched you
As we saw you pass away.
Although we loved you deeply,
Your Golden Heart stopped beating,
Hard working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us.
He only takes the best.
Those we love remain with us
For love itself lives on,
And cherished memories never fade
Even though a loved one is gone,
Those we love can never be
More than a thought apart,
For as long as there is memory,
They'll live on in the heart. We will alway love you Tommy. Love Uncle Donny , Aunt Debbie & Donny Jr.

It still doesn't feel real to me. How can you be gone already? I've gotten the messages you sent to let me know you're happy now. There's not a moment I don't think about you. I still have your voice mail messages on my phone. Sometimes I listen to them to hear you again. I love you and I will see you again when it's my time to come Home.

Tommy, my friend, I will always keep you in my heart. To know you was to truly be blessed. You always knew how to put a smile on someone's face. I will cherish every moment that I knew you. I only wish we had more memories, but we do have some amazing ones! I love you much and your spirit will forever shine in all of our hearts.

Tommy, I pray you are up there dancing your heart out and kicking it with grandma. Sure do miss our conversations and text messages. I look back on our conversations often. I never ever thought the day would come that I'd never get to talk to you nor see you again. But I just feel a lil better that you are no longer in pain nor suffering. Cancer is so horrible. Your sister Kelly sure did all she could do to try and fix you. She sure misses you more than anything. Tommy I pray you watch over her ya mom and dad. May you stay near so we can feel your touch. You'll forever hold a special place in my heart. Can't wait till I'm able to meet you again.. Keep smiling down we love you Tommy

I love you son and miss you soo much. When you died a part of me died with you. I will never be the same. Every where I look I see something that reminds me of you. This pain is unbearable for me. I hope it is true that you are in a better place. I know you are at least free of pain now.
Rest in peace my son. You will never be forgotten. I love and miss you,
Dad

I will hold on tight to all the memories we shared. Like you teaching me how to drive a stick shift in one of your Saabs. You always loved your cars. I was truly blessed to know you. You were an amazing person.

To my beloved son - the hardest thing I've ever had to do was say good-bye to you. The only thing that keeps me going is knowing it's only for a little while till we are joined again in heaven. I miss you more than I can even put into words. Your light burns bright in my heart.

Thomas Harold!!!!! Words can not even begin to express the pain I feel in my heart since having you leave me!!!! I am truly heart broken! I think of you every second of every day and I weep just like a young kid. I can't see life without you.... And I still can't. Life isn't fair... It wasn't supposed to go this way. You were the God father of my babies and they loved you more than you would ever imagine. I remember Maddy seeing you in the hospital for the first time and she broke down!!!! They miss you terribly along with everyone else who knew you!!!!! To know you was to love you. I have yet to cross paths with someone who didn't love you!!! I just want you to know, and I hope you knew this before, that I love you with every fiber of my being and I miss you like you would not believe. I'll always be your littlest sister, your Kell-can with nuts and gravy! Jesus Tommy, I miss you!!!!! Totally heartbroken is an understatement
