In the past years I called Tom,'Chief' because it seemed to fit his wisdom and take charge attitude. He was a good friend and co-worker who will be truly missed.

Tom was one the best workers that I had the pleasure of supervising, but he was not just another employee, he was also a friend whom we all called our brother. I had the pleasure of speaking with Tom just two weeks ago and could never have known that his time had come. God bless this great friend and brotha!!
