Alan Webb Greenville, TX February 12, 2025
"Myra I am very sorry to find out about Tom's passing. I spent time with him at the post office and he helped me at the studio at times. He was a person who would help all that needed and deserved help .. and had no problem telling those that were just lazy to go get a job ! I always admired his ability to call things as they were and at the same time I never knew him to speak bad about others. He always made me smile .. always ! Tom was rare and unique and we need more like him. I know now he is free of all the pain he had gone through. I am lucky to have spent some time with him."
