This is all I have I talk to your obituary my love for you is timeless and endless 🙋‍♀️😘

Thomas,

 If there was anyone who lived every minute of their life exactly how they wanted to in that exact moment, it was you. You always had a positive encouragement for everyone, although not always for yourself. When I wanted to play with the band even though I couldn't actually play an instrument, was pretty much tone deaf, and had horrible performance anxiety, you still told me you're in. We spent countless nights talking about the meaning of life, if there even was a meaning, music, adventure, love. In the drop of a hat we would be off on some random journey, and it was always a blast even when it was just to Bostom to get breakfast. You're irreplaceable, I love you <3

What a remarkable man. So hardworking, creative, compassionate, smart, musical, hysterical and handsome.  He had SOOO much love for his friends and family.  And I had so much for him.  The world will miss you. Love you angel!!!!!! 

I give my condolence to the Mantello Family for your great loss of Thomas.  It is very difficult to say "Goodbye", to Thomas who lived such a short life; but keeping in mind that God promised at Job 33:30 to have Thomas, rise up "To be enlightened with the light of life".  May we reflect on this promise to receive, and give comfort, peace and the hope of not saying "Goodbye, but saying "Till we meet again".

To My dear friend Tombo,

 I can't count how many times you were there for me, helped me out or put a smile on my face. I wish I could sit in your Explorer one more time and drive with you to the places only you knew how to get to. I would love to hear you talk about our favorite music, you always would point out things I would never notice. I wish I could tell you how much you influenced my life and will never ever forget you. 

In high school we would always talk about driving around LA together one day. I never brought it up to you the day we did it but I was happy we got to see that together. I hope the great memories of you make me smile one day but today they hurt. I love you and I miss you very much.

Your friend forever,
Keith Smith
