Tom was one of my nearest and dearest friends for over 30 years. His loving support was constant and unwavering. We wouldn’t speak for a while but would always pick up as if no time had passed. He lovingly welcomed me into his home while I was in New York in March for my dear nephew’s wedding. He drove me everywhere and kept me company. I’m SO thankful I got to spend those last moments with him. I knew he was gone even though I didn’t know. I felt the emptiness in my heart. I love you Tom. You are a prince among men. I don’t believe in death and I know your soul has passed on. I saw a butterfly two days ago. Maybe that was you. ❤️❤️❤️ I’ll miss you forever my beloved friend.

I would like to send my condolences to the family of Tom. It saddened me to hear of his illness and then of his passing. Tom and I were together in the late 80”s early 90”s. I remember his love for traveling and the many adventures we took together. Visiting France for a special family occasion, Hawaii, California, the Keys and throughout Florida to see family and friends. He loved the beach and traveled several times to the Gulf Shores. Coco Beach was an often destination spot. He lived at one of his families homes on the beach and enjoyed hosting parties there. I too remember his love for cooking and making fabulous apple pies during the holidays. May he RIP

Tom was a Great friend and cook. Tom got me interested in trap n skeet shooting. We started over 40 years ago shooting off the beach at Asharoken. Once a month we'd alternate on where to have lunch. One of his favorite places would be a Chinese buffet. He could really eat. We'd reminisce about the good old days and talk about current affairs. Tom was always well informed. I can't remember a time when we didn't have a good laugh. Even when we got a flat tire on the way to Florida and had to get flatbedded for 4 hours because his run flat tire wouldn't run flat. Till we meet again. Your friend KC
