Dear Patti & Children
I will always remember your husband & father as "Bonesy" He was a very quiet & shy guy. He was also a very great guy.I can remember him coming to my house with all the boys from St. Bart's & North What a good time the guys always had. they were a great bunch of fellows. They have always stayed close. He is still close to all of them & he will always stay that way. god bless you all.

Dear Mrs. Boran, Ryan and Erin,
I just met coach Tom about three weeks ago when my son,Justin, tried out for Resso basketball. I could tell right away that he was a wonderful and caring man. I didn't know him for very long, but every time I saw him in those three weeks, he was so kind and outgoing. I know he touched the lives of many. I am praying for your family!
