So sorry to read this...Tom was always pleasant and friendly.
He could be seen jogging on Main Street, or helping patrons at the package store while enjoying Grateful Dead music.
We shared some good music history from the 60´s and 70´s.
My condolences.

This was very shocking to me. I see Mr. Shea around town, and I didn´t expect to not see him. He is always so kind. He is beloved to many.
