I am sorry for your loss and Tommy's passing as a cousin we grew up visiting and having good times in Chowchilla with my Father James C Rose and Mom Susie A Rose
Tommy's Uncle and Aunt. We use to play baseball fish swim and play around Dad's Farm. Pray God's blessing for him and his family.

Carolyn and Family, My heartfelt sympathy for the loss of that crazy guy Tommy! All I can think about is the time you girls cut off his eyelashes, on only one eye, with a broken eyelash curler! He was always a cut-up and all around good guy to us "younger" cousins.
Carolyn, please know that if I were'nt in Texas I would be there to honor his life. So, instead all I can do is tell you that I love you and you are in my thoughts and prayers.. May God guide you to acceptance and peace in the coming days as you bit farewell to your husband.
Love to you all, Debbie Williams-Bush
