Dear Uncle Tom:
We will all miss you, your dry humor and jokes. Visiting Milwaukee will not be the same without you there. You will be greatly missed.
To Aunt Mary and Diane:
I hope you will realize how much Uncle Tom has meant to us and how lucky we were to have known him and had him in our family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love,
Steve, Debbie, Lauren, Alex and Matt

I want to convey my condolences to Tom's Family for their lose. It has been over 30 years that many of us living in Santa Barbara left Milwaukee for a transfer from
Delco Electronics. We had the good fortune of working with Tom at the Oak Creek Plant and remember many good times we had on the job.

Dear Mary,
We just heard of Tom’s passing Thursday morning at the dental office. The news broke my heart. As you already know, Tom was one of my favorite patients. I will miss his good natured teasing and sense of humor.
My prayers are with you and Diane.
Sincerely,
Kim (from:Dr. Paris' Office)
