Shirley, I am sorry to have missed the service. I always enjoyed Tommy and will miss him the next time I am at Woodberry. Tommy may be assured I will be voting, but I don't think he will approve.

Dear Shirley - I will always remember when you and Tommy first got together. What a wonderful pair you have been! I loved reading the obituary and of course I'm voting! Someone once said, "Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened." We were both so lucky the second time around! My love and thoughts are with you. Suzie Schmidt

Many years ago he took care of our sons when we first moved to Miami.
We know how much he will be missed.
May it comfort you to know that others share your sorrow and that our thoughts are with you at this time.
Very Sincerely,
Marjorie and Curt Brayer
