That is so hard to believe that it is now nearly one year since Tom or as his close friends would call him Squanto has passed. His passing his left and immense void and the lives of All those whom he had touched. Hopefully he is enjoying his view from above and approves of all the lives that we today live. My sincerest condolences to his family, Frank

Tom brought laughter to any room he entered and interest to any conversation of which he was a part. Not to mention the amount of homes which still today have furniture from his time at Boscov's Department Store in Wilkes-Barre. I remember stopping by for a visit when he and his family were vacationing in Longport NJ and was made to feel like a part of the family. God Bless he and his family.
