Dear Sylvia &Shannon, keeping you close in thoughts and prayers.You both were so courageous to bring Tom home, and love and support him during his last days. There is no greater gift, in my mind. He died with dignity, after a long and challeging batlle. I'm sure he knew how deeply he was loved, and still is by so many
