Dear Cy and family .... I am so sorry to hear about Tommy. I was wondering why I didn't get any emails from you Cy, and I just happened to pick up the paper tonight. Tommy was one of the first ones to offer his sympathy when Romey passed away. My heart goes out to you and your family. I feel your pain deeply. God bless you all. Sincerely,
How you can show support

A man who truly loved. Loved life, wife, family, and friends. Always making us all smile and laugh, he shared such joy with us. Memories of "Bird Legs" always make me smile. Just a short time ago, he wanted us all to get together again, old friends. He said we shouldn't have to meet again at a funeral home to share memories. He wanted to have a picnic in the park, the old gang from Curry, 20 years ago. This next summer, I promise you, our "leg of bird", I will get everyone together for a corn roast, in your honor and memory, in the park. God surely blessed us with you in this lifetime. Prayers, love and honor to you Donna and the kids. We love you!
