In everyone's life they meet people that influence their careers and attitudes toward life. Tom was one of those people. I worked with Tom for over 20 years and I must say that Tom had a very positive influence. From his sense of humor and work ethic to his technical ability's he was very impressive. I missed him when he retired and even more so now. My heart goes out to Barb and the family. He was a good man.
