Best friends are now together again. Tom and Bob Brown are swinging from that chandelier with their ropes again. This time they are free as a bird. Watch each other. Thinking of you Michele. Love, Cher Brown

Dear Michele,

It's July and I just heard of Tom's passing. Tom was one of the best fellows I met at UW, and one of the best lawyers from our law school.

His successful career in our profession made us all very proud. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

With deepest sympathy,

Mike Golden

We will mis so much Tom's visits to KC. We so enjoyed him. He always seemed to have a story to share. We miss not having that visit to the Lake so we could get him up on those skis.
