    We are so very sorry to hear of the loss of Mr. Tommy. We were able to get to know him over the recent past years and enjoyed many talks and wise words. He had the “coolest” sense of humor and often had us in stitches while he tried hard to keep a straight face. He loved talking about his family and he absolutely adored the little ones and ‘newcomers”. His love for Mrs. Judy and his adoring comments made me tell David that I hope we can have a love like they had. In recent years we still saw them holding hands at different times and referred to her as beautiful, lovely, and my favorite was gracious.
    Our prayers and love are with family, friends, and all loved ones for peace and comfort in the days ahead.
