To Lee and the family,
How is it possible to describe the sadness felt from losing someone as special as Tom. As a colleague, but most importantly as a friend, for over 15 years, I have had the pleasure and honor to see "business" Tom and "social" Tom going through all that came naturally to him. I never met a man with more honesty and integrity. The trust created through our encounters, along with his extensive business experience, allowed me to consider him a mentor, a "go to guy" who empowered me, the novice, and instill in me the confidence to navigate the convoluted world of healthcare. What "business" Tom didn't bring to the table "social" Tom added. There is no person more positive and optimistic than Tom was. His attitude was always constructive, encouraging and enthusiastic no matter what far reaching ideas or strategies I came up with. To Tom there was never a bad idea only an idea needing some gentle tweaking.
I thank God for the opportunity to have met and shared time with Tom and will always remember him. Please accept my deepest condolences on your loss.
Rest in Peace my friend.
