My deepest sympathies go to the Knickerbocker family. I did not know Tom but have met his mother and have been friends with his brother Pat for many years. Pat always spoke so highly of Tom and the two were very close. I am so sorry for the loss of a devoted husband, a loving son, and a dear brother to Pat and Laura.

Dear Knickerbocker Family:
I grew up at 61st & Wornall and fondly remember your family. I was quite saddened to learn of Tommy's passing. I clearly recall seeing the two little blond Knickerbocker boys playing outside while we Keenan kids watched from our bedroom windows, as we were sent to bed sooooo early! My brothers and I still laugh about that! Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers during this time.
