Not sure what to say?

I can't believe I'm just hearing about Tommys passing. We were classmates all 12 years at Keller. We had the same first name and had a joke about our initials I was TDC Texas Department of Corrections and his, TDR, was Texas Department of Recreation. We met at day care on 377. We once had a spinach eating contest. I held him in very high regard and am sad that he has passed.

Rhonda and family,
I was so sad to find out about Tommy's passing. He and Chad were good buddies and spent a lot of good times together. I remember taking him on vacation to Lake Conroe with us one time and they had a blast.

I saw him at a car show a couple of years ago and talked to him briefly. He always was one of the nicest young men with such a pleasant personality and smile.

My heart goes out to you and the family.

We missed adding our names.

We are deeply saddened by Tommy’s death, and our thoughts are prayers go out to his family. We have known Tommy since he and our son, Jake, became good friends in high school. After Jake’s accident, Tommy's friendship and support meant so much in helping us through a very difficult time. He was at the hospital almost every day, and his pleasant personality and easy smile gave us hope that life would get better. We love this young man very much and mourn his passing.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I am and will always be a friend of Tommy's. I met Tommy while working at Judge Beans. What a pleasure it was. He instantly became my friend. He was sweet, sensative and funny. He would get so excited when I would paint my nails in pink. He just loved it. I had so much fun with Tommy. It didn't take much to make him smile. He looked after me like a brother. My friend is no longer with us and my heart aches. My solice is all the wonderful memories of...

Many thoughts and prayers to the Raper family. Tommy and I grew up in school together in Keller and he was a wonderful friend and always had a smile on his face. I'm sure he has everyone in heaven laughing.
