The Day family will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. Tom was such a blessing to so many people. A wonderful Christian role model for others to follow. For me personally, I am a better person because I had the opportunity to know a man like Tom. He was able to live a great life and the Lord has given him his reward. Take care and God Bless to the family.

Once he came to my house as Santa Claus. When I lived in Texas and Dad was in the hospital, it was Uncle Tom that made sure I made it from and to the airport. I loved him dearly, and always will. I can only imagine the deep loss you and your family feel Tommy. Our prayers are with you. Love, Connie and Tommy Cantrell

Tom Day's voice rings in my memory with warmth and laughter. He and his family were welcoming hosts to my family from my earliest childhood. He is in the care of our Lord God, and we look forward to joining him in the presence of the Almighty. I extend my sincere condolences to the family.
