Tom, I first met you and Chris in Mobile at a reunion and had a chance to get to know you both mainly through CAC since I joined in 2006.    I have a great deal of respect for all you've done and for how well you both have represented our profession.  I am saddened by your loss and you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Tom and family, I was so saddened to learn of Christine's death this morning.  I have been thinking of the good and fun times we had together over the years---before you all were married and the times when all of us were together with Margaret and Bob.
