I was Maintenance Supervisor at Golden foundry and Tommy was my boss. We worked together for years, he was a good man and friend. He always spoke of his family and he loved his children and grandchildren and his son-in-law. He was just a good Godly man, and I am glad I had a chance to know him.

Thomas stepped in as my father when my dad passed away. He never made me feel like a burden and treated me like one of his own. He was the most loyal, loving, generous man. I carry so many lessons he taught me and I am so grateful he and I reconnected last year. I wish I could have gotten that dinner we discussed and just one more big hug. Love you and thank you for all you gave me, Uncle Thomas.
