5 Oct 2020I only met Tom a couple of times but I know how happy he made Becky. If Becky loved him then he was obviously a special person. – Debbie Stewart

He will be missed by me just talking to him. I know he will be missed by a special lady his wife. And I know he will be missed by all of his great family. I hope he is in peace right now. And will see everybody one day. With all of my sympathy – Jerry Middleton
