Tom was a great teacher, colleague and friend when I met him in 1975. All the great end of the year Tigers games with the crew, Superbowl Sundays and the yearly golf outings down South to the Poorman Tournament Up North. You don't have many friends left like that any more. May you hit them long and straight.
