My condolences go out to the Stephens family. I've known the entire family since back in the 70's. The parents were very kind and religious folks. Tim and I use to run around with other kids in the neighborhood. Tom and other older kids use to prank us once in a while, but in good fun. I would run into Tom once in awhile. It was always nice to see his smiling face. R. I. P. Tom Stephens.

I have known Tom and his family for many years and lived about 2 blocks apart. We went to school together at Faurot school and hung out a lot after school. I would always honk my horn when I drove past his house on Robb Ave. and stop and talk with him when he was setting out. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. I will be thinking of you every time I drive by his house.
