it has been a long time since i talked to Tommy but i remember well the many times when we did talk..He always kept up with my baseball life and later in life i seemed to run into him all over Pompano. My prayers are with Bonnie and  family..

Rest in peace Tommy. My deepest sympathies to your family and friends that are left behind to mourn your passing. Mom always enjoyed your phone calls and she would tell me you asked about us girls. I remember you from Pompano Bowl and bowling was your passion. Now you can score that 300. Gone too soon but not forgotten.

 I am priviliged to have been a friend of Tommy's all these years.I will miss his phone calls to N C ,keeping me informed to all things in good old Pompano.  My prayers are with Bonnie and the family.

Tommy, will miss those long telephone conversations. May you rest now and enjoy the conversations of heaven. Will miss you. Say Hello to Bill and Steve for me. My prayers are with your family.

Tommy and I had a wonderful phone visit less than two weeks ago. I was lucky to have been on his regular calling list of PBHS classmates and he always entertained me with news of friends I rarely get to see. (He was thrilled that Kitty Williams Perrin had stopped by to visit him recently). I'm so glad we girls made a fuss over Tommy at our PBHS reunion last year, surrounding his wheelchair and getting our picture made with him. He said it was the highlight of the reunion for him! I'll always remember Tommy for his deep love of family and friends, and for his acceptance and good attitude about his many health problems. And I will surely miss our talks. To the family, my sincere sympathy and I'm sad I can't be there to meet each of you whom Tommy spoke of with such fondness.

1/18/12 Tommy's mom and mine played bridge with a group of Pompano ladies years before we were born.  We've been friends a long time. I'm glad we got to talk again at the 2010 PBHS reunion. My deep sympathy to Bonnie and Tommy's family and friends. Regret that I am working tomorrow and cannot attend the service - I know it will be lovely.

Tommy would always make our day when he would show up at Mom's store with a delivery from Pompano Office Supply. He would hug Mom and Polly's neck and would have some funny story to tell us.

Tom always had a smile and a kind word for all, He was dedicated to whatever he was involved in.

Bonnie:  Tommy always had a smile on his face and loved to have a good time with his friends. He will be missed by those of us who considered him a friend.  My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this most difficult time.

With Deepest Sympathy,

Eleanor Barnes
