Linda, we're so dissapointed we missed the service, we've been out of town a lot and just found out. I can't begin to express my sadness, Tom without a doubt was one of the most generous gentleman I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. He was no stranger to anyone;his zest for life was contagious to all.
We are so sorry for your loss, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

He truly has always been a free spirit. Staying true to his humble ways and willing to give in any aspect he could. Thank you personally for making everyone feel not only invited but welcomed and comfortable in your presence. You were always the warmth of the event no matter the occasion. Thank you for sharing such a kind soul.

It is still so hard to believe a man like him is gone. Bigger than life was he. His smile and generous heart, a guiding light for all to see. I so admire the love you two shared. You truly still are an inspiration. Some of my best yachting memories include you two. My heart goes out to you and all those whose life he touched. Much love, Joanne

My thoughts and prayers go out to Linda during this difficult time. Tommy was the love of her life and together they were the perfect couple. Their time together was too brief. I am grateful to have known Tommy and enjoyed his and Linda's company many times over the years. He will be missed.

I had some of the best summers of my life working as a lifeguard for Tom Shell at Little Island Park in Sandbridge. He was a very kind and inspirational person. I know he is dancing the Carolina Shag to his favorite beach music in Heaven. Peace be with all of you in this difficult time; I am happy to have known him. ❤
