Life never gets easier for us. I miss you more every day. I will never stop loving you. Issy is getting so big. Already double digits. If you could only see. I told you that nothing mattered without you. I was wrong. Issy and I matter. It's just too bad you didn't know. It's also sad other people miss out on our lives too. I always talk to you, I wonder if you hear me. I love you and miss you.
Love wife

Words cannot express how hollow i feel without Tommy, even tho i only knew him a short time. I feel as tho I let him down...I could have been more aware of his presence than about my own problems. He cared for me and he gave me The Best Gift I shall ever recieve. I miss the way he thumped his tobacco can, i miss the way he smelled,one of MY Favorite memories is when he got the ALL ELVIS station on the radio when we took our vacation to Arkansas, When him and I drank some beer and sat on the porch at our cabin in Arkansas while EveryOne else was asleep. i was very sad at that time and he gave me comfort and told me to be strong........yea right.....i miss you dude.

We are praying for you and thinking of you every day. We pray that you will allow us to reach out to you and accept out heartfelt worries and prayers for all of you. Tommy was such a good friend to Cruz and they had talked a couple of times in the past few months.We know he will be missed by all of the men that have worked for him and with him and they all had great respect for him. We are praying for you and have lit a candles at Holy Rosary church for all of you . May God hold you all in his arms and comfort you all through this.

Amanda,
We are so sorry for the passing of Tommy. All the memories of him will be with family and friends for a very long time. He will be missed very much.
We are never prepared for the loss of a loved
one, but God is always prepared to help us
through that loss.
For God has promised us a
home through all eternity where life and love
continue far beyond what we can see.
God will never leave us,
He knows how it feels to have a broken heart.
May His presence begin the healing in yours
and Isabella's heart and soul, and may His
love surround you with the comfort only He
can give.
A stream can have no ending, for the ocean
never ends. A path winds on, though we can't
always see around its bends. Our view must stop
where earth meets sky, but both stretch on and on.
We cannot see our loved ones still, we know
they are not gone.
