I remember Tom making his special BBQ sauce all day at Elkhorn cottage with the 5 of us St Bernadette girlfriends!! We had do much fun together. Tom was a very good cook and Cathy was always on clean up duty afterwards. God bless Tom!

It was love at first sight all those years ago. And the love grew stronger, deeper and became one in a million as the decades flew by. We always said ALWAYS AND FOREVER. These words are still true today as I try to face life without you by my side. You are the love of my life,there will never be another. Rest well after all your suffering. Words cannot express how much I miss you and love you. Forever. Your Cathy
