OMG You guys! Tom (our Tom) passed away!

McVeigh Funeral Home - Cremation - Service – Albany – New York

I am sad. Beyond sad. I'm in tears. For anyone lucky enough to know him even a little bit, he was beyond. A one of a kind guy, and the kind of man who'd help you out even if he didn't know you.

If this is already posted here, my apologies. I am just so upset right now.

Memorial contributions in Tom's memory can be sent to The Musella Foundation For Brain Tumor Research. Make check payable to: Musella Foundation, 1100 Peninsula Blvd, Hewlett, NY 11557 or visit Musella Foundation: Donations.

And please, let's fill up his guest book! Let's show his family what a special guy he was to us.

I was just telling Linda Sue about Tom's passing. Was hoping someone else would mention it too. So young. So sad. Such a loss. Prayers and best wishes for his family and loved ones.
