This has been such a sudden loss to his grown children and me. Tom and I dated in high school, went other ways, then reunited in our 30s, were engaged...because of circumstances of outside obligations we went our separate ways again. January of this year we reunited for the rest of our lives together. It was as if we had never been apart. He was the same Thomas...loving, considerate, funny, a little stubborn, smart and humble but bold in the same way. It is so hard to just get our lives together, then he is gone. No one will ever replace my Thomas. As he told me the day before his accident 'You're the best thing 'that never happened to me', well I told him I happened now. Last message 'meet you tomorrow for dinner'...his last spoken words to me...'Love You'. A great 'Gentle'man.

I am for ever grateful to TD as we used to call him!I lost touch with him and was very sad to learn about his passing! Tom always said Gotter Buddy! Well one last time RIP TD ! God Bless you and your family!

Dear Karen and Family. Over the years you have crossed my mind. We (Annette) were class mates back in the day when it was called Jr. High. We are so sorry about your BROTHER. At times such as this , when words are so hard to find, may you find Comfort in GOD'S unchanging Words and in his Steadfast Love. Lifting you, the Family and Friends up in PRAYER.
