Paul and I send are so sorry for your loss, we send our condolences to the Forgues family. It seems not so long ago we would see Tom and Donna running up Norwood St and all us kids in the neighborhood playing outside. It was 33 years ago that Tom hired Paul at the school department where they worked together for years. Paul just retired a couple weeks ago and as we were going through the paperwork he said, "we are so fortunate that Tom hired me and gave me this opportunity, we wouldn't be where we are today if it weren't for him." We were both so saddened to hear of him passing. He was a wonderful friend and neighbor. Prayers for you all in this very difficult and sad time.
