Mr.&Mrs. Minasola and Family, Please accept our condolences on Tommys passing. We remember Tommy being a big part of all the kids on NewEngland as they were growing up. Tommy was always welcome in our home as one of Bobs friends and was a pleasure to be around.It was our privilege to have Tommy as one of the boys growing up in the neighborhood who was a friend of Bobs. Tommy was always helpfull , courteous and very respectful of us. We recall the fun times the boys had together with baseball(school yard) bicycle rides, Fireworks (school yard) and just being together. It wasn't to long ago when Wayne and Tommy met by chance in Uptown Park Ridge, they had a nice nostalgic visit and Tommy of course (as he would) asked about the rest of our family and how they were all doing. It was an honor to have Tommy be a part of our life and we'll remember him always with affection. We pray that God will help you cope with your great loss. Wayne & Ginger Bertermann ( Mrs. & Mrs. B. as the kids would say)
