Twenty years from now you will be more disppointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
- Mark Twain
No one exemplified this more than Tommy, he will be greatly missed by friends and family, fair winds and smooth seas until we meet again.

When you think of Tommy's life on earth, and all those loving years because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain. -

You will be greatly missed. Every time I say right I will miss your response or every time I am at a bon fire and see weird things in the flames I will think of you. You went far too soon my friend.
