We shared a locker freshman year at Benilde, and Tom was a good friend of mine all through high school. He was a regular at our lunch table. So sorry to hear of his passing and sad that I hadn't kept up with him all of these years.

Sally,
I am shocked to hear of Tom's passing. I remember our first bike trip in 1979 to Glacier and Seattle and back through Yellowstone. I will hold our times together for ever.

Sally,
Tom was my boss when I was in Indiana. He was a great friend and car buff. I will always remember him as a real person. He was also fun to cruise with. I had found him an old 59 buick picture that I gave him when I was down south for the hurricane. My wife is a vet and we have 3 shepherds that Tom had met. My deepest sympathy to you.

Sally,
I am so glad I was fortunate enough to see and chat with the two of you at Randy Guyer's "hospitality" setup at "Back to the Fifties" this year. I will always remember that at future "Back to the Fifties" visits.
Yep, Buicks in heaven and Tom is "Cruising" in a beauty now! Hope we will continue to see you after everything settles down to carry on the Buick tradition.
My Sincere Condolences,
Rick Meyer

Sally,
So sad to hear of Tom's passing. You two were some of my earliest Buick-59 friends, opening your home to me for a wonderful visit. It was great spending time with you in Colorado Springs as well.
Tom will be dearly missed in the community.
Peace be with you.

Dear Sally,
I was at the Excelsior Cruise-In on Saturday and hoped to see you guys. I walked up to Rick Meyer and asked about Tom. When he told me that he passed away on Wednesday I was shocked. He was looking better at Back to the 50's and fighting the good fight. I am very sad that we will no longer see him at the car shows. But now Tom is free of pain and in "Buick Heaven". I'll bet he's already tinkering on another '59. May God bless you Sally and hold your hand at this difficult time.

Dear Sally,
I was at the Excelsior Cruise-In Saturday and hoping to see you guys. I walked up to Rick Meyer and asked how Tom was doing. When he told me that he passed away on Wednesday, I stood there in shock. He was looking better at Back to the 50's and fighting a great fight. I am very sad today, but know that Tom is finally free of pain and in "Buick Heaven". I'll bet he's already working on another '59. We will really miss seeing him at local car shows. Sandra and I offer you our sincere condolences. May God bless you and hold your hand at this diffcult time.

Sally,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and Tom's family.
As you know, Tom and I have been friends since he was 3 years old and I was 4. I count him as "my best friend" for most of our youth and teen years. We did most everything together. While we have not been physically close in most of our adult years, it was always great to share family updates with you at least at Christmas. I look back at my childhood and view it as GREAT, not just good, and that is largely due to my friendship with Tom. When I spoke with him many weeks back, all of those memories were refreshed as well. I hope he cherished the last time we talked as much as I did. I look forward to chatting with you in the coming weeks as things settle down a bit. I am fortunate to have had a part of Tom that will always be with me in my head. He was a devoted friend and I am sure a loving husband.
With fondest memories and sympathy,
Jim Bennett

Oh Sally, we actually thought things were getting better since the information in the Exhaust Valve. We were just shocked to hear the news. Although we didn't see you often, Tom was always there with a helping hand or battery charger. He was such a neat guy. He will be missed. Our prayers and thoughts are with you.
