Tom was one of the best friends anyone could possibly want.. He was kind, respectful,strong, caring and had a heart of gold.. My fondest memory was years ago when he, Dennis and myself would play pinball at Kipps bar for hours & hours. Every time he would visit, he would constantly be petting my dog… Loved him for that! Rest in peace dear friend…You will surely be missed.
