So long Tom,

I just learned of your passing from one of your friends a couple of days ago. You and I are two old swimmers from high school. We had fun, went on dates together, went golfing with your uncle Har, swapped visits in college and went on our different ways. I will miss you.

Sad to hear that Tom passed.His spirit was unique in that he was often so energetic with his plans and endeavors yet always remained humble and accepting.I was a friend for along time, since the early 80's when he was traveling as a sales rep.His path was spartan and marched a path of his own making.His stories were always interesting and full of invention, often amazed by his smile thru adversity.I miss the guy. Travel well my friend!Steve Grasso
