Tom was my father-in-law, but almost like a father to me in the 40 years I had the honor of knowing him. From when I was 14 years old up until being 55 years old, Tom could make me laugh, he had such a wonderful sense of humor even though he may have told me the same story more than once, they got better each time he told them. Tom may be gone, but I am glad he was here, and I miss him
