Tributes
Leave a tributeI met Tom at The Hartford about 8 yrs ago when I moved to the dept he was in. I needed help with something and asked Tom for help. He couldnt have been nicer and actually reminded me of my own dad that had just passed. (They had the same sense of humor.) Turned out we went to the same church and we were pals from then on.
Tom and Myra both helped me thru a tough trial in my life. They were there praying for me, encouraging me, and making me laugh every step of the way. They helped me thru that dark tunnel to the light at the oth end. They will always have a special place in my heart. Tom you were more than a friend - you treated me like a daughter- and I'm honored to say you were like a dad. I miss u. And will miss seeing you on Sundays and giving you a big hug and telling you I love u. We'll take care of Myra for you. Until we meet again...
When I first started working with him, he helped me navigate the Hospitality realm before we launched Rock NC. He went above and beyond to help me get everything in place and guide me through how to launch and run that team.
Then, in 2013, we ended up in the same department and I was incredibly blessed to get sit next to him and work with him every day for nearly two years.
I eventually came to count him among my dearest and most trusted friends. His kindness and generosity to me was a priceless treasure. He showed me by his life what faithfulness looks like. In spite of any trial he faced, in spite of physical pain, he continued to serve God faithtfully and always with a smile and a heart full of grace and joy.
Tom was a magnifiecent reflection of God’s heart and modeled how to love God radically and to serve sacrificially. My life is a better, brighter life because Tom was part of it. I loved him. I miss him. I'm so thankful we will meet again in eternity.
I know when i get to heaven, he will be there to greet me with his smile, and his "Hello" shirt =).
You will always have a special place in my heart. I love you and will miss you dearly. But i know that you are in heaven dancing and eating snickers while enjoying a nice cold coke (or diet, depending on how you feel that day).

Singing with Tom
Tom and I were cubicle buddies for two years and had a common love of music. Old music, because we were both old. :)
When the Jersey Boys movie came out, we were both exicted to see it and started talking about old Frankie Valli songs and started sining them at our desks. The next day, I came in to find an email that Tom had purchased the enture Greatest Hits collection for me from Amazon. Such a generous, loving friend. I'm addiing this song because it was so true of Tom, he WAS too good to be true, and we could NOT take our eyes off of him.
Thanks to the loving God who gave me the gift of Tom's friendship.
