May God bless you and your...

It is with much sadness that I read Tom's obituary. He was a great guy, with beautiful blue eyes, a quick wit and a kind heart. I met Tom at Illinois College when he was a rowdy football player and I was a quiet English Major.He made me laugh,and we shared many good times.We didn't stay in touch, but I found myself thinking about him recently,wondering how he was. My condolences to his extensive family. Tom was truely an unique individual and will be remembered fondly by all who knew him.
