Not sure what to say?

Tom was a great man whom I admired significant. He was kind and knew a lot about the old ways and times. As a denizen that grew up in Marvel I was well aquatinted with the Herrera's and the Fitches. I loved them all. The los of Tom is a great loss to the history of Southwest Colorado as well as the American west. RIP Tom.

Some of my best memories as a child, is in Marvel with this family, that I was a part of, for a blink of an eye. I'm sad that good times and people can't last forever. I will never forget any of you. Our memories keep us smiling. You are all, always in my heart.

My condolences to his loving family. I was working as a Nursing Assistant @ Four Corners and worked as a PT assistant. Iv worked with Tommy and took care of him like he was my papa. Well actually he was. :) I asked Tommy one day If he could be my papa? He looked at me and said “well hell,I guess and laughed”. When I got him ready for the day or we did therapy Together. We would listen to Old George Jones, George’s straight, Hank Williams etc. He’d tap his feet and it brought me to tears...

My deepest condolences on the loss of dear I hope that 1st Thessalonians 4:14 can help ease your pain and give you hope.
