TOM S. LOOMIS III

I remember the first day you called me. You had your major surgery! Doyle introduced us. We talked for weeks while you were recovering. Then we actual met by coincidence at a business meeting about 10 years later. You were always happy...this makes me very sad you passed ... I will always have you in my heart! Just noticed we both graduated from Sam!

Steph - I am so sorry to learn of the death of your Dad. He always had a big smile for us when we would drop Rachel off or pick her up.

I met Smitty in the late 70's at a telephone answering service convention. He was so willing to share his knowledge with me and I still use many of his ideas to this day. I am so sad to hear of his death. The world is a better place because he was here. Lynn Martin - South Carolina

Tom, I can't believe you have left us! Such a fun loving guy! You always had an encouraging word for everyone you met. We worked together at Stewart & Stevenson for several years and I remember your participation in all of the Rodeo cook-off's, S&S Employee club events, your lively conversations with Jimmy Stewart and that constant and infectious smile. But your true love was your beautiful daughter. I remember how you so fondly spoke of her and how your eyes would light up when someone...

Just found out, too late to offer my condolences in person. So sorry to lose Smitty - way too soon. Always a warm friendly greeting, he never stopped caring about people he knew, no matter how long between visits. Great person! My best to all the family, and especially Donna Lynn. Elisa Barry Smith

Thank you Cousin Smitty for being kind, gentle and funny and a gift to the world :)

I worked with "Smitty" for 10 years at the answering service. I remember him and his yellow cadillac. He was a great person to know.

Smitty was the most wonderful person I've ever known. I worked for him in the Credit Dept of LTA for 16 years. He was never without a smile, a laugh and an encouragement for everyone he met. He will be sadly missed!

My sympathies...I was friends with Tom in high school...loved that yellow convertible
