I am so sorry and very sad to hear of this terrible loss. Tommy was one of the most genuinely nice and kind people I have ever met. I can't imagine what his family is going through and you are all in my thoughts and prayers. Bob Westover
I was so lucky to have known Tom. He was a wonderful man who obviously loved his family and friends. Let the memories you have of him carry all of you through your grief and sadness.
I am honored and blessed to have know Tommy. He was a true blessing in my life. I will always have the beautiful memories with my hillbilly bear.
Aunt Carol, I was so sorry to hear of Uncle Jeff's passing. You and the family are in my prayers and thoughts Always looked forward to your visits to SC.

I'm very sorry for your Family's loss
Was just thinking about Tommy the other day. You can't imagine how amazing Tom and his family were to me.
He was one of the greatest men i have ever known. I loved his and Aunt Carol's visits to SC each summer when I was a child. I always thought they were the coolest...they NEVER seemed old to me at all. He was such a handsome uncle and each visit he never failed to tell me just how proud he was of me and how beautiful a young lady I was. He will live forever in me heart. I love you handsome!
