Tom is known in our family as Mr. Google. You could ask him anything biblical or financial and he knew the answer. He was a walking talking encyclopedia. Every time that we talked or communicated by letter, he would share something from his readings. Then, he would give me an assignment. After hanging up the phone I'd always say: "Aye ya yay". He wants me to read something. ". Tom will never be forgotten.
