The skies seemed like they were crying the day I learned you had passed on, after the rain, I could hear the mourning doves mournful cries. It was like all of nature grieved at the loss of a truly wonderful & great guy. I will miss you bro, everytime I see something on FB that I thought you'd like or get a chuckle from.

My condolences to the entire Shuck family.
Tom was a long time chat friend. I got to know the many facets of 'shuckers'... the poet, the artist, the collector, the baker, the joker and the deeply loyal friend. He loved his family and 'his' Colorado so much. I admired his courage in dealing with his health issues. That man hung in there longer than I/we thought he ever could. Bless his heart.
R.I.P. Tom ... 'I miss you already.'
