Tom always put a smile on my face whenever I heard his voice! In a recent conversation he told me unwaveringly how much life and Lisa meant to him. He told me of his "big plans" to go out with a bang and leave his mark for those that mattered. His being made a big difference to those who knew him or had the brief chance of spending some time with him. A quick wit, big shoulders and a warm loving heart are Tom's legacy. May he look down on all of us and be at peace.

I remember first thing in the morning I would say "Tommy" and he would say "Kimi" and that was our good morning to each other. He was a special person that could make me laugh without even trying. He will be missed.

I was saddened when I opened Craig's e-mail this afternoon with the news of Thomas' untimely passing. For those of us who had a working relationship with Tom he was always professional and always looking to help his customers especially in difficult times. Tom will be sorely missed for his work ethic and tireless efforts in making his customers businesses better, in turn making Toledo's business better. He will be personally missed in the way which he connected with people - his ability to include you and mentor you was seemless and sincere, he always challenged you to be your best.



To his wife Lisa and his family my heart goes out to you in this time of sadness. Know that all of us who worked with Tom were better for having had the oppertunity to know him - know also that those of you whom he loved were truly blessed.

Tom will be greatly missed by all who knew him. He was a straight forward person and had a great sense of humor. He also had a great laugh and used to crack me up. Tom was a great guy and I enjoyed his friendship greatly for the few years that I knew him.
