In 1975 he rode his motorcycle six hundred miles from Southern California to Northern California too attend my son's funeral. 

I met Tom at a motorcycle shop in Glendale, California in 1959 or '60. He was a product of the '50s and '60s and the wonderful times that they were.  I often thought he could have stepped straight out of the script of "American Graffiti". In any event, they broke the mold after him and I was proud to call him my friend.

 

Tom, may You Rest In Peace! I’ll never forget the camping trips / dirt bike rides / trips to the river / working on motorcycle s and cars in your garage..... you will be missed my friend... God Bless you and your family..... CJ

I will always remember your smile, Tom! Rest in Peace!

I grew up with Tom and his family in Detroit, Michigan.  I knew the whole family including his Mom, sister Geraldine, brother Charles and even Teddy their beautiful collie dog. Tom was a real active fun loving guy with a quick wit, a real talker.  He truly loved life and all it had to offer.  I last saw Tom at NBC studios in LA, Calif. and he was a courier on motorcycle.  Boy could he ride motorcycles.  He was closer to ny brother Russ due to age, but we always enjoyed it when Tom was near.  May the Good Lord enjoy Tom now that he is home.
