Rest in Peace my old friend. You departed us way too early.
My heart is heavy as I try to come to grips with the news of Tom’s passing. Tom was a great friend. My memories of Tom go back to the mid 70’s. His laugh was infectious. Tom and I shared many good times throughout our years at Normandy and beyond. Our trip to California in 1977 is still to this day a memory I cherish. This news shakes your soul. I am so sad to here he was taken far too early.
Rest in peace my friend you will be missed.
