Tom was a great friend, college fraternity brother, and he introduced me to aviation in his private airplane in college. That launched a 50 year involvment with flying many aircraft for airlines and flight instruction. Most recent we met for lunch to talk aviation and old times, while i was training clients at flight safety. He will be missed. Bonnie and I send our condolences to Isabella and all the family.

RIP
