?"I don’t know what’s exactly waiting for us “over there” but I do think it’s another place where we go after we die. And it’s the same place our loved ones, who have already passed on, are at and occasionally they stand at the doorway of our subconscious and when they do we draw imagery, like radiation, from such close proximity from those that we love." from the notes written by Thomas J Bolt ? My what if guy

We were so saddened to hear the news. Years ago, Tom was our neighbor in an apartment complex in Summerville and was such a great neighbor and great person. I remember he had a handmade sign on his front door that read: "The Peacemaker". We also helped him move one time and he was so genuinely grateful. We always had such a great time with him.
We loved you Tom and we know how much you loved your children and they are in our prayers...
God Bless You and Your Family,
Rest In Peace, "Peacemaker"

What can I say? I only had the privilage of being around Tom a few times, but I enjoyed all of the conversations we had. He was able to make me think outside of my box, and smile. I know I will miss him alot.

Mr. Bolt I still remember the day we talked music and life in the Summerville High School auditorium. I will always remember the the sly smile you had on your face when I asked you to mentor me for radio. Thanks for the laughs and all the thought provoking things you said to me.
Olivia and Ethan you have both been on my mind since I was informed about this. Your Dad loved you both very much. He told me constantly. If you ever need anything at all just call me.

I can't even find the words... I loved you Tom, so very very much! And, the world became a darker, sadder place the moment you bowed and took your leave... I am sure you went out with a smile, a wink and gesture of gracefulness! I am so going to miss you!

Ethan and Olivia...as everyone has told you, your daddy loves you with all this heart and soul. I know you already know that...but so does everyone else that he spoke to...as you two were always the topic of conversation. He is so proud of you both and will watch over you - that you can be sure of!
Thomas, you are going to be missed, my clever, witty and sometimes (okay often) ornery friend. :) You didn't like when I called you a "nice guy" or a "big teddy bear"...but you are those things and more. You always were captivated by storms - the bigger the better - and everytime I witness one, I will think of you. We had some great, deep conversations and I admit they had me thinking...sparked a deeper thought. You had insight that most don't...and yes, I do believe you acquired a 6th sense. Thank you for being a friend...Godspeed "ya big teddy bear"! <3

Do not weep for me when I no longer dwell among the wonders of the earth; for my larger self is free, and my soul rejoices on the other side of pain...on the other side of darkness.
Do not weep for me, for I am a ray of sunshine that touches your skin, a tropical breeze upon your face, the hush of joy within your heart and the innocence of babes in mothers arms.
I am the hope in a darkened night. And, in your hour of need, I will be there to comfort you. I will share your tears, your joys, your fears, your disappointments and your triumphs.
Do not weep for me, for I am cradled
in the arms of God. I walk with the angels, and hear the music beyond the stars.
Do not weep for me, for I am within you;
I am peace, love, I am a soft wind that caresses the flowers. I am the calm that follows a raging storm. I am an autumns leaf that floats among the garden of God, and I am pure white snow that softly falls upon your hand.
Do not weep for me, for I shall never die, as long as you remember me...
with a smile and a sigh.
Thomas is all this and much more. May his family and friends find peace in knowing that Thomas is cradled in God's strong arms! All my love and more.

My thoughts and prayers will be focused on Olivia and Ethan during this sad time. I have only known Tom for a couple of years, but he had become a close friend. He adored his "progenies" and spoke of them often. He will be dearly remembered for the amazing talent and humor that he shared so openly.

To Olivia, Ethan and the rest of those to whom Thomas was most beloved, my deepest, heartfelt sympathies to all of you. I first met Thomas at Kirkman Broadcasting one Saturday when he and Olivia were producing a Car Spot for broadcast. Their interplay and jovial attitude toward the work at hand showed this casual observer the love and mutual respect they had in their life. Although I only knew him for a short while, I will miss him as a kindred spirit with whom I had many a joyful moment within the halls at the Stations. Anything I can do, please don't hesitate to ask...
With Deepest Sympathy...You remain in my thoughts...
