Through the years I can't say I have had any better friend. So many great times, and adventures, and some not so great. Anyone who knew Tom, will tell you, "He was the best friend any one could know"
I'll miss is him dearly, and his monthly calls. Never was their a friend any better than Tom.
Prayers for the entire family
