One of most dearest friend I have known . Tom & became good friends after chartering with him several years back. I would meet up with Tom every winter in Daytona Fl. we would fish everyday. My most treasured memory is when we brought my son Jake up for his 10th birthday and Tom made sure Jake caught his 1st King all by himself ! Tom you will always have a special place in my heart. You will so be missed on the Great Niagara River !

Papa had a wonderful life with lots of family and friends. He was willing to help anyone who needed it. Papa was always willing to give you a nickname...whether you wanted it or not.
