I will miss seeing Tom and his twinkling eyes at meetings and special events. May God be with his family in this time of sadness.

God gave Tom gifts, but also great burdens. He bore whatever came his way.

Tom's strength and caring ways touched the lives of many people over the years. What a blessing he was.

If I could see him NOW--Tom would be sitting on the "Smokers Only " cloud with his buddies.

Now how wonderful is that!!

Love from your Happy Birthday songstress.
