Tommy and I met in the 7th grade and saw each other off and on through High School at Berry. He was funny and one of the best looking guys ever. We reconnected long enough to email some and talk on the phone about 12 years ago. I’m so glad we did. I know he was crazy about “Taye-Taye” and had a good heart. God rest him, he had a big impact on me as a kid and I never forgot him, and never will.  I just now saw this, and was shocked, as I planned to try to contact him. I’m sure he is missed by his family and friends alike. Till we meet again, Becky Pool

Tommy was a good man and loved his daughter, guitars, and Stevie Ray Vaughn. He was generous to a fault and had a beautiful smile if you were fortunate enough to see it.  We grew up in the same neighbor hood where he easily stold all the girls hearts including mine!  He was a good friend and will be sorely missed .
May peace be with you my friend.db
