Diane and family,
I was very saddened to learn of the loss of your brother Tommy. I haven't seen Tommy in many years, however, I do remember him so well. I know too well, the pain and terrible sadness that you are going through, as Bob and I lost our beloved son, Russell, just four months ago.
Please remember that Tommy is in my prayers as well as you and your family Diane. God bless all of you.
