Tom was a friend of Frank and me for years! He enjoyed stopping by for a soda when we lived in Milwaukee and chatting! He loved my bird JR and took care of him when I traveled! He would always say, "I can hear my little buddy" when I was on the phone with him! May God bless you for your kindnesses on this earth, Tom!

Love old trains 027 & O gauge. 1976 Bicentennial GE.

I remember the magical train village in his basement my sisters and I loved seeing it as little kids. Tom was a very nice cousin .

While I only knew Tom a short while, he was a great neighbor! I wish I would have had more time to spend with him. The stories he did share with me I will keep forever. He will be missed by many in the neighborhood!
