My deepest sympathy to Tom's family and all the Torkelson's. I have fond memories of growing with the Torkelson clan just down the alley. It was a big houseful of kids and an ever smiling mom. There was something inviting and special about the Torkelson house.
To lose a sibling must be one of life's saddest moments. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time.
Renton was a wonderful place to grow up in and experience childhood memories. The Torkelson family...

I am so sorry to hear about this huge loss. I lost touch with everyone after we grew up & went our own ways but I often think about the great times and warm welcome I always got when I visited the Torkelson home. The Torkelson's were like an extended family to me as they were to most of the kid's in the neighborhood. The fondest memories of my childhood were the times I spent hanging out at the Torkelson home getting into mischief. I have yet to find a cinnamon roll as good as Mrs Torkelson...

Tommy was a classmate of mine at Henry Ford Elementary. I was saddened to hear of his passing at much too young of an age. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
