Just hearing the sad news of Tom´s passing. He was a longtime friend. We met in the early 90s around the motorcycle scene in Louisville. I was fresh out of law school and he had been my CPA since I opened my own practice. All the best to his family. He was a wonderful person who wasn´t afraid to test the limits of the IRS!
