Mother kept us informed on Tom's illness and now his passing. We were sorry to hear what a hard time Tom was having and we are so sorry that he had to go. Thankfully, you had a GREAT 31 years together and we wish it could have been much more. He was really a nice man and interesting fellow. It was always fun being in his company!

Dear Tracie and family,
My sincere condolences on the passing of your Father.
I always thought he was funny. I remember when you bought your first SUV, we went to show him and he gave you some sage driving advice. He was very caring.
How sad to lose your parents way too young. I think of your Mother frequently.
