My Prayers go out to the Family. I was Googling to see if Mr. T was still working part-time so that he could review paperwork for a business venture that I'm purchasing to find the unfortunate news that he has since passed. I worked for Mr. T for 8 years and remembers fondly at how he was the fairest attorney I'd ever known. Mr. T was highly respected and I trusted him with everything personal and close to my heart. Mr. T will truly be missed.

I worked for Sally Foote and Mr. Thompson from 2002 until they closed the firm. He was a kind, thoughtful, smart, and caring man and it was my good luck to work in his office. God Bless.

He will be a great loss to all who knew him. Myself, as a former court reporter, considered him an amazing attorney and a friend. I will miss him very much. even though I lost touch in recent years.

My deepest condolences go out to Mark and Stuart and their family.
Have known Dennie for many years as a friend.
Although we were not close, I kept in touch with him through my brother, Ernie. The last time I saw him was in Sewanee at a celebration of Sewanee's football team.
My thoughts are with his family,
