Condolences

Condolence From: Dixie (Sutton) De Wald
Condolence: Tom, a classmate of mine many years ago.

Would always see Tom when gathered for a class reunion - would come in, visit a bit and then be on his way.

My deepest condolences to you and your family.

Condolence: Oh my gosh, I'm so happy we continue to receive the Bulletin Journal after having moved to the Green Bay area nearly two years ago. We didn't always find Independence to be the most welcoming community, but Tom always made us feel valued and enriched! Ironically the horoscope posted for me in the same issue as Tom's obituary stated "Take a few moments and think about your inner values and what really matters to you. Remember - you never see a hearse pulling a U-Haul." To me, that says it all about Tom, his most valued possessions were the values he carried within and demonstrated outwardly. Earth's loss is Heaven's gain!!!!

Condolence: Karen and family: I was so sorry to learn of Tom's passing. He was a real character in the most positive way. Watching him watching his kids play was a real treat. You could easily see how proud he was of all of you!

Condolence: My condolences to Tom's family. I only had the pleasure of knowing Tom briefly through umpiring high school softball. I was blessed to work a few lower level games with Tom in the recent years. Lastly I was glad to recognize Tom sitting in the crowd this past year while working an Independence softball game. I was able to share one last handshake and greeting with him as well. RIP TOM
