Tom,
I am very sorry for your loss. I never had the opportunity to meet your wife, but I'll always remember those lunches she packed for you. Remember those days we'd sit in that basement (Assay Building) and BS and you'd pull out your lunch box. You often would invite me to taste some of the lunch and I remember that bottled trout. Tom I am sorry I missed the funeral, but as usual I am never informed until after the fact. Our old buddy Allen May called me and expressed the sad news. Again, I am so sorry and know just how hard it is with the passing of a loved one.
Take care my dear friend--an old Kennecott acquaintance.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Dear Tom and Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss.
Like I said in your card Tommy...I have always looked at you like my baby brother. Sylvia is a special lady, and I'm sorry we never did get to visit like we always said we were going to. This transition in our lives isn't an easy one...it takes time. Give yourselves the time you need to mourn the loss of your Special Wife and Mom. I hold you close to my heart and will keep you in my prayers. I'll give you a call when I get home. I'm sorry I can't be there for you at this time, but I am there with thoughts and love.
Much Love,
Shirley Warren-Monson

Sylvia was the first person I met when I moved to Riverton my Jr. year in high school. She was so nice to me and we became good friends, even working together at the cookie factory. Thanks for the good times Sylvia.

As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." We will all have peace in our hearts and a knowledge of our true identity when we know, as Tevye said in Fiddler on the Roof, "who we are and what God expects us to be." Sylvia is easy to love, despite her illnesses and great suffering she exhibited, always, her inner peace in her actions and deeds. We'll miss you for now. Love, Perry
