I have so many wonderful memories of laughing with my Uncle Tommy, starting from about 2 years old when he and my Aunt Martha (both of them in high school) took me to feed the geese and one ate my mitten! I was scared but they they laughed so hard, I decided it must be funny and laughed too. Another time, we were rowing to my dad's sailboat when Tom accidentally tipped over the rowboat and we all fell out, laughing hysterically. They are many more memories like this that I will always treasure.
