Thomas Francis,
Where do I begin? He was one of the realest person I´ve ever met. He was always taking care of everyone else. I have soooo many great memories and they will help us all get thru this difficult time. I loved Tommy like a brother and he loved with all his heart. I was fortunate enough to receive that love and I will cherish him forever. He had a lot of sayings but one he use to say to me when I worked at Mary´s for him was: "My mom called and I have to go home!"
Well his mom called and he went home to all his loved ones that went before him. The heavens are rejoicing. My heart and prayers go out to all the Ahern family! We are all at a great loss! May he rest in peace
