Not sure what to say?

I was recently made aware of Tom´s passing. I moved from FL to CT a few years ago which is why I didn´t hear right away. This is just awful to say the least. Tom was so kind hearted. He was a great leader and he will be dearly missed.

Janet and family. I was incredibly shocked to read of Tom´s passing. Tom never gave it a second thought when I needed legal advice or if I referred a case to him. I remember he and I got our backs broken playing in a basketball game. I pray you are all well and I will never forget Tom and his graciousness. God loves you all. Bruce Merles

Janet, I was sad to hear of Tom's passing. My condolences to you and the girls. I worked with your girls at Davie Elementary in the Gifted Program. They spoke often of you and Tom and it was clear how much they loved you both. May God watch over you and guide you through this difficult time.

Janet, I am so sorry to hear about Tom´s passing. As I look at the clock, you are at the visitation service. I am praying for you and your daughters. I pray God will hold you in his loving arms and be your strength as you find your new normal. I have a lot of fond memories of you and Tom in our younger years in Davie. May Gods be with you all.
