Though Tom was my good friend in high school, it never seemed like any time had passed as we saw one another over the years. We could see ourselves aging as we met infrequently, he being in Colorado, and I being in California, but that was easily ignored in our camaraderie.
When finally, his body was failing, and that could no longer be ignored, he did those things he could do, accepting, without complaint, the limits of his life.
Not long ago, in conversation, he told me that he knew he would once again be whole when he had passed on; that he would be released from his failing body, and would be free of pain, and able again to do those things he loved to do.
I feel certain that he was right. Peace be with you, my friend.

Tom, with Cyndy, was a
neighborhood leader in efforts to get the golf course behind our homes reopened. Our efforts bore no fruit, but not because Tom didn't inspire us to try everything we could. I'll remember him for that, but also for just what great next-door neighbors he and Cyndy were. Their annual New Year's Eve parties brought the neighborhood together and welcomed new folks.
And no one can ever forget the wonderful, animated Christmas decorations they put up, including music over the radio, that brought people from around the region to view it.
May God welcome you through the Pearly Gates, my friend! Rest in Peace!
