Just learned of Tom's passing this morning at 7 Hills Church. My husband and I have only known Tom for a short time, but he had become a dear friend. We loved listening to his stories. He was taken by our great granddaughter and gave her a stuffed Easter bunny . We will miss you Tom and always love you.
