Vicky and family, At times like this it seems we often don't have the adequate words to express what you need to hear to comfort you and lessen your pain. Just know that we were so sorry to hear of your loss and that we are keeping you held in our thoughts and prayers. Forgive me for being so late sending these condolences as I just found out tonight. (9-17-11) Wish I could give you a big hug but my arms won't reach from South Carolina. Take care and be strong. Let your memories help your heart heal. Lots o' luv

Vicky and family,
My thoughts are with you upon hearing of Tom's passing, I always enjoyed working with Tom and listening to his stories in the dog house of the rig. Tom always had a smile each time I would see him year to year. Always good memories.
