I have my red shirt on today.  Tom and I visited by phone several times and I had the privilege of meeting him at the pig roast a couple of times.  No picture from here...yet.

Thinking of you Tom!  We miss you.

I wore my red T-shirt today and thought of Tom all day (I've been doing that anyway).  No picture though. The camera I have doesn't have a timer on it and there was no one here to take the picture for me.

Well I didn't get a picture either, but you can bet your bippy I wore my red shirt today.  I wore it yesterday too.   Fortunately, yesterday was my public day and I was all by my lonesome today. ;D

A Note from Gael.


there is a picture of Tom is the group of pictures when we drove to Valpo 2 years ago for Christmas and the picture of him in the snow with just his red t shirt and jeans on is just so classic him, if you would post this on the forum some may get a kick out of it.  I have not had the heart to go onto the forum except to read and reread the postings about Tom so I do not know how to post a picture from another email.
 
Please let everyone know that reading the post have helped me cope, the only word to describe my feelings is heartbroken
 
Thanks

Gael Cadenhead

What a great picture!  Looks like he was coloured into a black and white.

It seems that even a small bit of Tom is a treasure.  Thanks Gael for sharing your memories with us.

That is the classic Tom I have always known. It was a honor to have known him.
