Tom ~ I am so sorry for your loss. I just learned of this this afternoon when I went to Cunningham's to meet a friend for dinner. Laurie was there and she told me. I was so shocked and saddened to hear this. I hope that you and Edie are doing well. My deepest condolences to you, your family, and your daughter's friends & loved ones. I hope that her kitty-cats are okay.
Sincerely, Jodie Sherman

Tom, I am so sorry for your loss. Though I never actually met your daughter, I remember all the times you would talk about her. Especially when you would say she was coming to cut your hair and how she would look in the box of the things you were going to give away and she would always find something she wanted to keep. You are such a wonderful person and we all love you at the Breck. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
God bless you, Laurie Engleman
