My heart is broken at the loss of Tommy Denman. Tommy is one of those that I worked with at Shell...and over the years became a dear and cherished friend. I am so sorry that we weren't able to keep up after we both retired from Shell. Thank you Rene for letting me know. Tommy was truly a dear person and a cherished friend....he always had a smile....and looked for a smile.
