I was his neighbor in Madera, CA. I moved but still went to see him and take him Christmas and Thanksgiving dinners every year. He touched my heart. Such a trusting man. RIP Tom.

Thank you to all who signed his guest book. Tom was truly a free spirit. He loved nature and always felt at home when he walked in the woods. I know he loved the park where he lived in California, I'm sure he is now enjoying nature to the fullest. It's good to know he is with mom, dad and Kitty again. Tom...be at peace. I love you and God bless.
