My sincere condolences to the Strange family. Tom's passing is very sad news, but I will always cherish my fond memories of Tom, his family, and the many adventures we had growing up in Naperville. I find some compfort knowing that Tom is with his father again in Heaven - probably fishing.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Sincerely,

My thoughts have been with your family since I learned of Tom's passing...of course those thoughts included the time we spent on Basswood Drive and our youth. Even though I am sad to hear the news, my thoughts of Tom still make me smile - and laugh....we will all see him again!
