I am so sorry to hear of Tom’s passing. I met him at the Pontiac Nationals in Norwalk several years ago, actually went for a ride in my Safari on my test drive, the seller Kevin Haines was also a friend, we’ve talked every year since. Rest in Peace Big Guy, you and Kevin can talk about Pontiacs again.

So sorry to hear this about Tom. We just talked to him a couple weeks ago at the Pontiac swap meet where he kiddingly said that he was buying things he said he didn't need. Rest in peace buddy

Tom, I have known you for as long as I can remember because your presence at a Pontiac event could not be overlooked. You were always one of my fathers favorite guys to talk with about Pontiacs and world around us. You two can now talk Pontiacs again. I just saw you at Pontiac event in Hilliard on March 9th. I shook your hand and we exchanged hellos as I was running about. So glad that I was able to see you once more. I will miss you Tom.
To Tom's family, he was was always a great guy at our Pontiac events and he touched the lives of so many people throughout the years. He will be missed by many within the Pontiac community. My condolences to you for loosing a member of your family.
