Dear Tom;
We were shocked & saddened to learn of Tommy's death. Both Jan & I plus our son Tom send our deepest sympathies. Tommy was ALWAYS a great scout & really worked hard for his advancement to Eagle. He made all at Troop 22 proud of him. From all the comments here, he certainly continued to live the scouting spirit throughout all his days.
