My wife (Jan) and I were shocked to hear about Tom. So sorry we were unable to attend the funeral. Our condolences go out to his family. Take care of yourself Uncle Vern.

Ann and I express our deepest sympathy to all of Tom's family especially his dad. He was a real friend and help to my mother. I will always appreciate everything he did.

Tom and I drifted apart, as people do over the years, but we were always family. He will be greatly missed by us all.

Thanks to all who sign the guest book. ~Dave

Dear Tom,

I couldnt believe the news when I heard it-I still can't. You left us before we could link up again.

I was just in Clarendon Jamaica working on my most recent project and I spoke about you to some people that I had just met. I think it was the day after you left us-I didnt know you had gone until that evening. Funny how that works...sad really.

I have some copper/gold ore samples from the mining project that you and I talked about the...

Very sorry to hear about Tom's untimely death. I've known him since kindergarten. So glad I saw him last year at the St Mary's Reunion.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Swanson family. May warm memories of Tom comfort you during this difficult time. With heartfelt sympathy, from all your friends at Kenall Manufacturing

Tom was a wonderful man as well as a very talented artist. He put his heart & soul into his painting & restoration projects. I am grateful to have a piece of his soul in my home. Tom beautifully restored an old sewing cabinet for me. This treasure is now showcased in my home, and will be cherished always. My deepest sympathy to Mr. Swanson and family.

Dave Swanson emailed me about your loss. I am very sorry. I knew Tom when I went to school with him at ETHS. I always remember him smiling! My condolences.
