I knew Tom for many years dating back to grade school. He was a good friend, and I have many good memories of Tom. It hurts to see him pass away at such a young age--ditto for his cousin Pete. A part of Tom will always be with me.

It is with great sadness in my heart that I extend my deepest sympathy to the family of Thomas.

I know that you are surrounded by enormous love from your family and friends. PS 145:15 says, "He is giving support to all who are falling and Is raising up all who are bowed down.". Therefore, I encourage you to take comfort in knowing that God is there for you and cares for you.

Sincerely. DEE
