TURDS was the COOLEST!!! With a strong character and quick wit, he always kept us from taking ourselves too seriously. The memories of Tommy will continue to put smiles on our faces. As worse of a thing couldn't have happened to a better person. We will forever be held in the highest of regards, and live on in our hearts as a great cousin, son, brother, nephew, uncle, grandson, and friend.

Tommy, I'm going to miss you soo much! It makes me so sad and mad at myself that I didn't stop by and say hi more often. I'll always have our memories of running around the neighborhood acting like little hoodlums, though! And when we meet again, I'm so squishing your cheeks! You'll always be in my heart!
To Kathy, Kristy, Dale and the rest of the family, I'm at a loss for words to express how sorry I am for your loss. You all are in my family's prayers.

Hey Tommy, I have so many questions that will never be answered. We all love you so much.... I am so glad to of met you and make you one of my best friends. And all I do every day when I wake up is just think of all the good times that we did have. Thanks for making this summer just purely amazingly great. Never had one like it and never will have another one. Remember the "pool party" ha ha ha and all the bon fires and blue moon.... you were suppose to teach me how to ride. I am going to learn from Patton. Wish me luck ha ha ha ha.... Well I am saying goodbye for now, "I'll see you on the other side" thinking of you always

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together you can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......""My day was not in vain.""
And now I am contented....that his life has been worthwhile,
knowing as he passed along the way, he made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got him on your mind;
He's walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
I knew of Tommy through my son and some of his many friends and always heard what a great person he is. My deepest sympathy
