TOMMY RYALS

Tom, was one my supervisors from 1979-1983 at Control Data Corp.. One Friday he put his car in the shop and I volunteered to give him a ride. He and I worked on a computer problem all night long at White Sands Missile Range LBJSC. Dinner that night was a Snickers bar from a vending machine. We worked until 5:30 AM. We were both tired and cranky. We became angry and argued numerous times that night. We each felt the other was unable to see our own view point. I drove Tom home then had a 40...

Dad-
I miss you with all my heart but know that we will be reunited one day! I love you!!!

Tom was not just a great person to work with, he was someone you could truly call a good friend, partner, buddy, confidant. I could depend on Tom for advise, support and strength to meet any challenge that came my way. I knew as soon as Tom walked in the door or got that call from him that everything was going to be alright. I will always keep you in my heart Thomas

My heart goes out to all of you right now. May God comfort you in this time of sorrow. I've been reflecting on so many memories of my Uncle Tom and these memories brought a smile to my face. He was very colorful and his accent only added to his charm. Big hugs to all of you.

Love,
