Dear Marie, I am so sorry to read of Toms` passing. Both of you were a pleasure to wait on at The Continental on Wednesdays. I will always remember Toms` way of saying, o-kay, whenever I asked what he would like. Such a kind sweet and gentle man. Accept my sympathy for your loss, but, then again love is never lost. Jan "Penney"
