To Laverne, Peter, and Steven. It was great sadness that I learned of Tom's passing. As you know, Tom and my dad were great friends, sharing the love of bowling and coin collecting. I have fond memories of them together and always knew Tom to be a man of integrity, with a great sense of humor. I wish you God's blessing during this difficult time and please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
