Sandy and Family-
I remember your husband as a wonderful father and neighbor. I especially remember the last time the neighborhood got together and shared a meal in the yard. I had just come from caring for my husband, Daniel, who was ill at the time and I had not eaten..I was invited across the yard to join in. What a wonderful memory. He will be missed. My prayers are that God will comfort you in the coming months knowing that your neighbors and friends are holding you all in their thoughts during this time of adjustment and mourning.

He will be greatly missed.

Sandy, I don't know if you remember me but I used to live down the street from you on Lake Blvd. about 31yrs ago. My son David and Bobby used to hang around each other. I'm so sorry to hear about Tom. It brought a lot of old memories back to my mind. It's been so many years ago. I see you are blessed by a large family. Hang on to each other and all the good memories of Tom. Please take care of yourself.
