Well, it has been a little over a year since I lost one of my childhood friends growing up in B'burg...I still think of him and all the fun things we did. I will always remember the homemade go-cart we had and riding in the big corn storage pad down at the grain elevator! Then, we broke a wheel and we would ride it with 3 wheels! That is just one of the many things we did growing up...he was a great friend. Rest in peace buddy...

Tom was a great friend. His grandma and grandpa lived across the street from me in Bloomingburg. We were into all sorts of things as kids. We then joined the Air Force and went to BMT together and both survived! He was a kind and caring person that did so much for those around him. He will be missed...Rest in Peace, Buddy!
