Dr. Thomas C. Childers Jr.

Tommy's grandparents lived across the street from my Gilliland grandparents in Cleveland TN. He was a year older than me, but we had many of the same friends. So sorry to hear he passed away.
Hilda Gilliland Smith.

I mourn for my half-a-century-long best friend in America. I share Kristen's, her mother Jean's, and Tom's children's feeling of a great loss.
