Laura, Daniel & Kevin,

Each of you are in my thoughts and prayers. You were the three most important people in Tom's life. I am so very sorry for your loss. With loving kindness, Melanie K.

I met Tom last year at Farmrock. He was very genuinely friendly. Over this last year, my husband and I would go see the shows that were in our driving ability because of the friendly nature of all of the band members. I grieve with you all. Tom will be remembered for the friendly handshake welcoming us to the show.

Thank you for who and all you were! I'll always remember the pure joy and pride you showed when onstage and with your family blood or otherwise

Tom was a great guy who will be sorely missed. He touched a lot of lives, a bright spot in many people's world. Sending thoughts & prayers to his friends & family during this difficult time.

I had just met Tom about 3 months ago at a show my band played with his band. He needed an Amplifier so I said sure. I had seen his band before he was in it and I must say I was blown away by his talent, feel and emotion. Not only a Great Guitarist but a Great dude as well. I wish I could of spent some time with him. Sending prayers, condolences and hugs to all that knew Tom from our family to yours.

Although I only met Tom less than a year ago...I feel ultimately Blessed and so fortunate to have done so and call him my friend. What an amazing man and musician. Heaven has gained a wonderful angel. Condolences and God Bless to his family. R.I.P. Sarge
