Tommy was a friend over the years from high school and we had recently connected again during visits to Beaumont in the last year. Lots of laughs about stupid stuff we had done! I think he really enjoyed meeting new people with his working with Uber in retirement. You are missed and my condolences to the family of Tommy, He spoke of you and Suzi often and was very proud of his children.

Dear children of Tommy, I am so very very sorry for your loss. I don’t usually write on these pages but you dad was a very special man to me. Your dad was my first boyfriend as a young teen. He had a sparkle in his eyes that could light up a room and a laugh that was so contagious. But most of all, he had the kindest most genuine heart. He was a great first boyfriend because he was so respectful, polite, funny and considerate and he set a wonderful example for what a girl should look for in a mate. My parents loved him too. And most parents are very skeptical of their daughter’s first boyfriend. LOL. We remained friends throughout school and my mom would always tell me when she ran into Tommy while out and about. I am so glad your dad and I were able to visit at the last reunion. He was a wonderful man and the world is a better place to have had Tommy in it. May G-d bless and keep you all.
