Tribute to Tom
« on: October 25, 2011, 10:51:58 am »
I just recieved some preliminary funeral info.  Arrangements are not complete at this time, but it is being handled by Callahan Funeral Home  www.callahanfh.com  in Callahan, Fl.  It will take place either Thursday afternoon or Friday morning at Jacksonville National Cemetery.  Appropriate dress is jeans and a red t-shirt. :) 8)

There is nothing on the funeral home website about it yet, but there will be an online guestbook there soon.  I'll post more details as I get them.

I was thinking that the whole forum could be part of this tribute to Tom,  if we all wore red t-shirts on Thursday or Friday.

I have one pair of red scrubs!  Consider it done.

New member here but read a lot of Tom's stuff.  Made me laugh and made me think.  I will wear a red T shirt and jeans in my day job office.
