Tom was a great Friend. He will be missed by me. He was one of my most long term friends I ever had. I met Tom when I was 13 and now I am 47. After moving to Florida 12 years ago, we (Tom) and I still stayed in touch. He came to visit here 5 years ago. We went through alot together. Girlfriends,Wife's and Kid's too. Through all of this,we stayed friends. I will truely miss a "Real" friend.My Heart goes out to "Tony" and his loss. If all of us could have a friend like Tom, this world would be a Better Place. My Heart goes out to Mrs. D. Conners, "Mom". Your son was a Good Man. May he Rest In Peace. God's Love To All.

I am very sad for your loss of Tom. I was a class mate of his from Precious Blood school and I was browsing the internet and seen it too late to go to the funeral but would have come today if I had known. Please email me if you get this and tell me what happened to him.I am very much in shock over this. We aren't very old to be losing classmates already!
Your in my prayers
