My family sends condolences to the Hurley family. Tom was a kind easy going guy. He was always there for his family. We were sorry to hear of his passing.
I know Cookie is a very strong woman but it is always nice to have a partner you can lean on. It is a terrible loss but I am sure the family will cherish all the memories Tom shared with them.
