I was deeply saddened to hear of Tom's passing. I considered Tom a friend. I always enjoyed my conversations with Tom. He worked hard at everything. I was always impressed by his skill at rehabing properties. I pray that God will put his arms around you and your family during this time and that your hearts will be lifted up with the hope He can provide.

As a fellow Boy Scout troop member, I knew Tommy best in his youth. Even then he was clearly destined to become an accomplished individual. When I think of Tommy, I always remember him with his best friend Greg Falor. I knew they would both stick with the troop to acquire their Eagle rank. I believe Tommmy even obtained his religious award. He will live on in the hearts of those who knew him and in the lives of his three children.

Dear Joy Marie,
Life sends us flashes of joy and pain. We cannot know which to expect next and we certainly cannot prepare ourselves for a pain like that which you and your beautiful children now endure. But have faith in God, Joy, because there is a plan and there is a reason. Do your best to be strong. Those who love you will be there for you long after this imediate shock wears away. We will not be far. Tom was a loving husband and father and a good man, who will be missed, but not forgotten. Be strong Joy Marie. We love you.

Our deepest condolences. We will never forget the wonderful vacation we spent together. Tom displayed such love for you and the kids and seemed so happy. I was jealous of how easy he made being a good father and husband look.
You and your family are in our prayers. God Bless You.

I was sorry to hear of your sudden loss. I worked with Tom for many years at CWP. He also spoke proudly of his wife and family. His leadership and sense of humor are qualities I will always remember about him. You are all in my prayers.

I want to express my shock and condolences upon hearing about the sudden death of Tom. Tom and I went to high school together, and we did a lot of the silly things that young teenagers do – I have great memories and smiles and my life would not have been the same if not for Tom. He was a good friend and I am saddened to hear that he has left us.
I can still hear his laugh – and see his blue Nova with the wheels from my old Mustang going down the road…..
You are in our thoughts – during this time of sorrow.
