Mrs. O'Connor
I am so sorry for your loss. Faye (6311 Edmund St.)called me and I was shocked. I always had/have a special respect for Firefighters, as that was what I wanted to be as a child growing up.

My first LT on the job. I learned a lot from him even though I was only with him at 70s for five months. A great fireman, great officer and great guy. RIP Lootie.

My deepest sympathies. Tommy was one of the good ones. I looked up to him as a rookie and was always glad to see him as he was the only other Philly Fireman that grew up in Pennsauken like myself. I'm very sorry for your loss and may he rest in peace.
