I just wanted to express sympathy for your loss. I used to see Tom and shoot the breeze at the store several times a week. I'll miss swaping stories and his Sunday morning drivebys of my house when I was up and the ladder painting and he would stop to "inspect" my work. Best wishes.

Very sorry to hear the news of Tom's sudden passing. It was always fun to meet and chat with he and Pat at so many family gatherings. He will be missed, and his dedication to his sons and grandchildren will always be remembered.
