Tory, Tory, Tory, ... so now were just supposed to go around with a Tory-sized hole in our hearts, where the humor, perspective, and joy had been. Dude! That totally sucks.

At least we have the conciliation of knowing you get to reconnect with others on other side. You be "Mr. It", though, ok?

Tory's mission while in physical form was to help children who suffered on this earth; there is no doubt he is continuing his mission in another dimension. May we all do our part to help Tory and continue in his footsteps.

I am so appreciative of the funny, sincere, caring, devoted, passionate, determined warrior that Tory was. His positive impact on the world was immense and I am convinced he will continue on as a Champion of the Light. He taught me so much; I will forever be grateful for him and the gift he was to humanity. My sincere condolences to his family and friends.
