to the gannon family, i just found out tonight of toms passing. i am sorry i would have come to his mass. your dad was a great influence on me over the years. i spoke with him many many times about life, business and what makes a man happy in this life. i believe Tom was a happy man. he looked for ways to help others which i think gave him great joy. his greatest joy though, was his family. he was an honest and honorable person. someone who i would have on my team everytime.i will surely miss him. rest in peace Tom - jim young
