Colleen,
We are so very sorry for your loss. It won't be easy to not have the love of your life with you in the days to come but know he is with you in spirit and your angel in heaven.

We will always remember Tom's gentle nature, they way he looked at you and his woodworking talent.

We are praying for comfort and strength as you face the days, months and years ahead.

We Love You,
Tim, Molly, Daniel and Sam Elge

Tom was the most sensible and fair-minded teacher I knew at Blackburn. He was fair with his students, kept their best interests in mind, believed in their aspirations and developed their negatives into their positives. I'll always remember Tom as living the true meaning of being a teacher. May the Lord welcome his gentle spirit into Heaven with open arms and love.
