I was working with the HK & Kowloon Wharf & Godown during the years 1971-1972, working as a CFS checker in the Sea-Land CFS no 35. I still remember when Mr. Cloud's huge Honda 750F being unloaded from a 35 footer which had attracted everybody's eye balls. Mr. Cloud was the Yard Manager of Sea-Land Hong Kong(Kwai Chung Berth 3) during the period 1972-1974. He was riding a Honda 750 Four to/from work during those days, he and his super bike was always an eye catcher on the roads in H.K. I was 24 then, riding a much smaller Honda SL125, one time I happened to leave the terminal with him together and I still remember he said: ' let's go Hondas ..... " . He was my idol then,,, and always in my memory.

Dear Lois and Family,
We were so saddened to hear of Tommy's passing. You two were so wonderful to us when we lost our son and that is something that is never forgotten. We are here in Alabama, and hope you will visit us this year.
Love, Y.B. and Carolyn

I was a classmate of Tom at PHS. He was one of the many I counted as a friend. We went our different ways but after all these years I remember him well as a good person. I am saddened by his death and send my sympathy to his family.

I was so sorry to hear of Tommy, my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
Although I have not seen Tommy but a few times over the years, I still remember the times we shared. He and I fished quite often during our youth . I met Tommy at an early age and we grew up in together "Brownsville" and went to college together.
May God bless you.
