Marty, Gordon, Amelia and Elizabeth,
Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you. Just as Tommy, with Gods help, did while he was here on earth. He was a true Warrior that "took care of things". The legacy he set will be long remembered. God Bless and rest in peace my great friend.
