John i hope you are holding up ok. I know it seems like a never ending battle at times like this but, it will lessen. We're all here for you if you need anything! I will miss Tom very much too. He was a good friend and a great ear to listen when anyone needed a shoulder. He'll be missed greatly everyday. You'll both be in my prayers.

I am sorry to hear of your loss. It's been many years since we have had any contact with your family. We were former neighbors on Somerville. I'm living in my parents house.
