My brother Tom got me one of my first jobs out of high school. When I moved out of my parents house in 1978 he let me move in with him and his wife. He then had a son named Derrick. Tom and I carpooled to his company at Sorg Printing in downtown Chicago and we would occasionally have lunch together, I seem to remember eating Italian Beef sandwiches from a street cart near Canal and Washington Streets. That was a good time for me. I will miss you brother Tom. May you rest. You've left behind a big family who will remember you forever, and with many children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, please trust that Sue will be taken care of until she sees you again. Love you Brother Tom.
