My Heart was so sad, when my brother Jake Mullen called me to tell me of Tommy's passing. I still remember the time my son Torrey & Tommy both came to Birmingham to visit me and his baby brother Ishmael, what a time we all had. Tommy & Torrey both in the kitchen cooking and laughing and joking around like to big bother's I fell in love with Tommy then & he became addition as one of my son's. When I spoke with Torrey just last nite I could tell he is in still great pain of the lost of Tommy because of the deep love he had & still has for him. As we cried together I explained to my child in which God tells us in "John 14:1-3 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Fathtr's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if i go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. Rest my Sweet Tommy until that Great Getting up Morning! When we all will be together again for in God's kingdom there will be no end" Everyday will be Sunday. Love Torrey, Ishmael & Mommy Mullen -Overstreet.

I can still hear you singing today. I remember how you would come on the bus at 7 in the morning as cheerful as ever and as loud as ever just singing away. The bus driver even told you to shut up! We would all wonder how someone could be so awake so early in the morning and so happy to be going to school. Everytime I hear the songs I laugh cause I think of you. You and your family are in my prayers. You will be missed Tommy.

I am deeply saddened by Tommy’s death. He touched the lives of many young people through his ambitions to be a successful music producers and businessman. I met Tommy through my Son, he always encouraged my Son to finish college and be a success at what ever made him happy. He was always welcome in my house and often stopped by just to say hi and check on my Son to make sure his head was in the right direction always offering positive and encouraging advice, I would hear him say 'the streets have nothing to offer'. Tommy will be missed by all whose lives he touched. As his family you should be so proud of Tommy and the life that he was trying to live, he had positive goals in life and was trying to make them come true.
My love and prayers are with you.

"It is through the parting of two that eternal love is truly discovered. For their love stays strong and holds till the end."
Tommy, I don't really know how to feel or what to say. I feel like they took away half of me. The one thing I am sure about is you are now in a better place, away from the stress and suffering this world put on you. I know you are looking down on me and the baby, and we will be okay. I LOVE YOU Bay, and we will be together in heaven soon enough.
