Taylor, Cara, Jeff, Marilee, et al:
I was saddened to learn of Tom's passing. He was truly larger than life and touched so many people through his kindness, his generosity or just that infectious smile. He will live on through each of you and through the good works he leaves behind on this earth. He will be missed but never forgotten.

Godspeed, Tom.
