Please accept my condolences to Tom´s entire family. I´m a member of Saint James Parish and had the opportunity to bring Holy Communion to Tom many times. Although he wasn´t my regular assigned person (Communion once a month), I did enjoy visiting with him and his care taker many times over the past several years. He was always appreciative of our visits and Communion that he received. He truly believed in Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.
