During a year there are times when I see somthing,read something or hear someone say something that would make Tom laugh or get fired up about. I wonder what would Tom think about,the shortage of trade people in our country now. Today,it is not easy to find a good/qualified plumber,carpenter,etc,etc. Tom, as we know ,a great plumber that took a lot of pride in his work. He would not be very happy about this shortage,even though he would be very busy with work. Bill

It's been 10 years since Tom passed. It seems only yesterday we last visited . A personality as big, gruff (a facade) and warm and welcoming as Tom's is long in our memories and still brings a smile to us, even now. Ginny

It does not seem to me that Tom passed 10 years ago,just a year or two. I guess the older we get,time seems to move faster than we think. Tom's very
unique charm and wit is still sorely missed. There have been many times over
the years,I would see or come across something and think that is a Tom Burr
thing for sure. Being a long time Bronco Season Ticket holder,I would like to
know how he feels about the latest price increase? I feel certain that most of
Littleton would know. I'am very happy that I can still laugh about things when
thinking about Tom.

Tom, would be really taken back with all the very good young talent on the PGA Tour. He was used to seeing
10-12 stars all the time,now there are 20-25 stars all the time. He would be pleased with many of the
good changes going on in Littleton today. I will not comment on the current housing prices today,that may
be too much for him. Bill- Brother-in-Law

We are sad at Tom's passing...my own sadness is tied to my selfishness-- that I will be deprived of his bigger-than-life personality and gruff kindness. We will miss him, he was "one of the good guys".
