I’m completely shocked to learn of Tom’s passing. I had the pleasure to get to know Tom through rugby. I am saddened to learn this information. I learned tonight that there have been four guys I played rugby with during 1986-1989 that have passed. I am so sorry for them and the family and friends left behind.

To our beloved Tom's family,
The residents at 525 will miss Tom Dearly. He was one of ours and we loved him. Our hearts are full and we wish you peace.
We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be the vacant chair, But though we no more possess him, Still our hearts his memory bear, But a while ago we gathered, Friendship beaming in each eye, Now the golden cord is severed, He has passed to realms on high.
With Love, Tom's grieving Neighbors/Friends
