I did not know Uncle Tom very well but I do remember at Grandad's funeral, I thought he was his twin. My sympathies go out to the family and I am sure that they are reunited with Grandad, mom, Aunt Sharon,Uncle Bob, etc.

I always looked up to my Uncle Tom, He set a great example. He is the reason I have a great love of sports. I have many fond memories of our years at Tube Turns. I am glad we had an opportunity to see each other recently since I live so far away in California we had lost contact over the years. My sympathy to my Aunt Doris and her family for their loss.

I had the honor of meeting Tom when he and Doris visited San Francisco. He was a true gentleman in every sense of the word. My sincere condolences go out to the Canary family during this difficult time.
