We have been next door neighbors to Tom and Beth for the last few years. While we didn’t know Tom as well as we would have liked too - we knew him well enough to know he was a good man, a good citizen and a loving husband, parent and, grandparent.
We will miss his friendliness and easy going ways. We will do our best to be good and caring neighbors to Beth.
We send our deepest sympathy and condolences to the Murph family.
