Dear Bernice and Family, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Tom was a great guy and a great friend.I first met him 30 plus years ago, I brought him a couple of bags full of food stained receipts from four years, and asked him to help me. I will never forget his smile and laugh, from that point on I was one of the few who would look forward to getting my taxes done. I loved Tom and I only saw him a few times a year so I can just imagine the love he had for you as you had for him. Please accept my deepest condolences,
Dear TJ, Im so sorry for you and your family. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. I've Always appreciate your friendship TJ since we first met. And although I never met your Dad. I know he was a good man. Like you are. Your Friend Dave
Although it hasn't been a very long time since I met Tom I will miss seeing him sitting in his garage smoking his cigar. He had a personality that truly lit up a room. Always smiling and kind words for everyone. Each time I saw him he had a big hug and always made me feel like I was family. I know Tom you are at peace now and God for sure has another "Angel" with him. You will be forever in my prayers and in my heart. Rest in Peace. Till we all meet again. xoxo Lucille Morrongiello
