Tom, our love gave us two of the greatest kids ever, Ryan and Jamie. Ryan has your mannerisms, facial expressions, kindness, a gentleman to his core, just like you. Jamie is a mini-me in many ways, strong, independent, outspoken, and facial expressions that are you - all day long. I'm so grateful to have had you in my life and to have the blessing of these two remarkable, loving souls. They are truly my lifelines. We love you so very much and miss you each and every day. You're always in my heart and in my prayers.

I had the please of knowing Tex well many years ago. He was a friend to all. I am thankful for knowing him and greatful for the friendship that he showed to my sister and my brother in law, Sue & Mark Workman. I had the pleasure of meeting his wife some years ago one evening for dinner and was glad to see they were happy together. Although I hadn't seen him for some years, he was still the same great friend I knew. My adventures of long ago with the trio of Tex, Mark, Jeff and sometimes Charlie will forever be in my heart and never forgotten. I am hoping Tex is now at peace and is with my other departed friends Gail and Sheryl Spencer. Till we meet again... Dede

I was I lucky enough to see Tex 4 weeks before his passing in the hospital.I to went see him not so much to say goodbye,but rather to say hello,we hadn't seen eachother in over 2 years.As sick as he was at the time,Tex still greeded us(Mark Workman,Mark Pilla and myself) with that infectios smile of his.The memories I have of Tex are many and fondly remembered.
The one thing I do know is the world is a lessor place,without Tex in it,he will be deeply missed.

I hadn't seen Tex since High School until our last reunion. I was glad that I went. He was definitely fun to be with and always there for us. I wish his family all of the best.

Our 1991 reunion was the last time I saw Tex and he was still the young, happy and kind person we all knew in high school. All the caring emails this week from all of his classmates "Remembering Tex" are an affirmation of that. My heart goes out to his family.

Tom was one of the best friends and neighbors anyone could ever ask for. He was just a lot of fun to hang out with, whether it was with our children or us, he always made us feel like we were part of his family. We couldn't ask for a better family to be part of. A wonderful human being! We will cherish his memories and never forget him, We will always love you Tom!!

As a member of the ’71 Bedford High School class, I didn’t know Tex very well. However, one day as high school seniors in front of the entrance to the Bedford Public Library; he just started talking to me. After all this time I remember how he made me feel special and how warm, friendly, and kind he was to me in that brief moment.

Tex touched many of us in his very special, unassuming way. His kindness and friendliness was always exposed through his boyish grin and yet his eyes bared his keenness. Simply stated, he was a good one and I feel a reflective loss. Both Tex and his family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Tex was one of my best friends. He was always the heart of the party. He had a way with people, he might have done well in politics. He never left without having a good conversation with every one in the room. He knew what to say in most every situation. I'll miss him a lot.

I was so saddened by the news of your passing, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family Tex. A great man once said,"Love is eternal, your family will always love you and be there for you." We are your family and our love to you always. The great man; my dad, the day before he went to be with God.

That constant grin you always had is etched in my memory. Your disarming charm and warmth touched so many people in the brief years our paths crossed. Our high school senior year we were on the varsity Soccer team together. Although we only won one game all year your upbeat positive outlook made it always fun. You will be deeply missed old friend. You are in my prayers.
