I am finding this out so late. I am so sorry for your loss and for this world losing such a wonderful person. Tom got me started in music photography when he was with elektra records and gave me the opportunity to photograph his family in the studio as well as in his home. I am forever grateful to him for the great opportunities he brought to me. More than that, though, Tom made me a better person through his faith and his kindness through some pretty tough times for me. He will be greatly missed. I will be keeping him and his family in my prayers.

Tom was very good to me. When we first met I was in my early 20s. Tom was instrumental in helping me get my first commercial radio job at WONE in Akron, Ohio. I worked full time in radio for almost 25 years because he went to bat for me and got my foot in the radio door. Tom was funny, influential, engaging, and so knowledgeable about the music industry. I learned a lot from him and will never forget all the things he did for me. I am proud to call him my friend.

Tom had the biggest heart for people and God. He always thought of others and was full of wisdom. Tom was blessed with a beautiful and kind wife, Karen. We had the pleasure of knowing Tom for almost 30 years in Cleveland. He will be truly missed. We love you Tom! Minister Vicky Pryor and Pastor Ernest Pryor aka his goof off Friday buddy and close friend.
