Tom Shahood always had a smile for me! Ive worked at Cvs for almost 17yrs now and only in the last few years did I get to know him but he was a kind and gentle soul. I never had the pleasure of meeting Barbara but he spoke very highly of her as most loving husband's would. I feel honored to have known Tom and will miss him dearly! May Tom and Barbara rest in peace with the angels and watch over all their family from above.
