Sorry to just hear this news about Tommy passing. My condolences to the Tolliver family. Tommy was a real cool brother. We worked together at SA-26 in Beltsville, MD for years and we even played on the basketball team together! R.I.P my brother!

My condolences to the Tolliver Family. I was so sorry to hear about his death. I met Tommy at Spingarn High School, he was such a lovely, quiet, young man. When I didn't have a date for my prom, Tommy was so gracious to take me to my senior prom. For that I am grateful. I had seen Tommy over the years and he was the same loving and caring person. Tommy you will be missed. Rest in Peace!

My brother from another mother. I can't put into words how I am feeling right now. Just that the pain of losing you is so bad. Your smile, your way with everyone that you came in contact with. You touched a LOT of young men and I know they are feeling the same pain. I pray they will honor you and go on to do great things. Thank you for teaching me to Hand Dance. I will think of you every time I hit the dance floor. All IS WELL! Rest In God's Arm's! LOVE ALWAYS
