Donna, so sorry to hear about the passing of Tommy. Was very lucky to have known him and you thru the years. Rhoda was so proud of him. I loved talking to him, he was truly a genuine human being. I hope you find solace in knowing he was a great man and liked by so many. Including me. RIP Tommy, another Angel how his wings.

Donna, even though we have only known you and Tommy for a short while you have been the best neighbors. When Tommy was getting around better he always smiled and engaged in conversation. You both have been through so much and I have to say you have been so positive and never once complained about how hard it has been. It was so good to see your family over helping and I so enjoyed cooking and baking for you and Tommy. On good days I remember him smiling and always saying thanks. We will miss him and his happy smile and gentle ways.

Tommy was such a nice man. Donna must be heart broken. We won't be able to attend due to our roommate 's fragile condition but we do care a great deal. Rest in peace.

I loved working with Tom at Anne Arundel County Government and his role as Background Investigator, it was my first time doing Public Safety Recruitment and he took me under his wing and showed me the ropes. He was always smiling and had a joke for me. We called him "Sunshine" . My Sympathy to his wife and family.

Tom's many friends at Mason Dixon Post 194 are deeply saddened by his passing. And while mere words can never adequately express our deep and abiding sympathy, we hope that you can take some solace in knowing thatTom is at peace and at home with God. May God bless him and keep him; may God look kindly upon him; and may God shine His light everlasting light upon him and grant him eternal peace.

My deepest condolences to you, Donna. I have so many childhood memories of Tommy (and you). He was such the prankster. He later gave me career advise as a young adult. When my Dad passed away he called to have a long talk with me and console me. He was a good friend to my parents. They are all in heaven together now. He will be missed but his memory will live on. Hugs to you
