I inherited that laughter from my father. It is good to laugh, bill; But sometimes ya just can't. It is very comforting to know that Dad was loved by many people.
Thank you to all for your love and prayers. I think i am going to be ok; but please continue to pray for Marcia.
Thanks again,

Kevin Wheeler, Son #4

I can still hear in my mind Tom's uproarious laughter, which you could hear from any corner in Lewis Bros. What a joyous person he was. Although I hadn't seen Tom in more than 25 years I still think of him fondly and remember what an asset he was to my family's shoe business. I am sorry for your loss.

To all members of Tom's family:

My deepest sympathy on Tom's death. I knew Tom through his work at J. S. Paluch; he was a gentleman, and a pleasure to do business with. I shall miss him. You and he are all in my prayers.
