I regret being unable to attend Tom's services and wish to convey my most incere condolences to his family & friends.

Although Tom and I were North High School classmates, demands of military service, jobs, girls, opportunities, etc. gradually caused us to drift apart for over 50 years.

Our 2005 50th year High School reunion directory provided the opportunity to update those old relationships.

Of particular interest to me was Tom's membership in the EBEW. One of my closest friends from childhood Robert (‘Tiny') Gray, also a long-time member, as well as a '55 graduate, passed away several years ago.

I recall Tom as spirited, loyal, and dependable; with a great sense of humor.

I trust Tom is not gone to us forever…We will meet again!
