"I played with Tom as a youth, went to and graduated high school with him in 1969 at Omaha's Benson High School (Heck, we even liked the same girl) I became much closer to Tom when we began to share our musical intertests, songs and adventures in the the past couple years via the Internet and Facebook. I will always remember Tom. Tom's greatest joy was his family. Tom left a very powerful legacy of love in his life. Thank You, Tom - I will miss you."
