Thomas was a kind, caring, thoughtful friend. He is sorely missed. He has left an empty place in the hearts of those who knew him. He loved his God, he loved his family, he loved his friends, he loved people, and he loved cooking. His last words to me on March 23, was how everything was going to be about God once we got pass this current crisis. Words cannot erase the pain of loss. My prayers go out to the family, that God will give you peace and comfort in the days ahead. With...
