Tom was my big brother, the eldest of our six siblings. He is in Heaven with our two brothers, Howard and Gene, now. I will miss them all until I die.

My heart goes out to his dear wife, Jayne, who knows I think she is a saint, and to his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren and their families. May you all find comfort when you least expect it.

I love you all.
