February 23, 2022 at 7:26 pmSpent some time around Tom. He had a servant’s heart, a sailor’s mouth, and an amazing family. I loved watching how he loved Ben and Ian. And, oh, how he loved Chris. He gave the boys the greatest gift a man can give to his son—how to love his wife. I’ll will miss seeing him but I will treasure all those times I got to laugh and cry w Tom. His compassion for others was always on display—he loved ya no matter what! I love you, Tom, and your family. Chris, Ben, Ian and the whole family, my heart is there with you. May God bring you strength and comfort during this time.
