Kay,
I am truly sorry of the loss of Tom. I enjoyed working and talking with him. When I seen him Sunday there was so much to catch up on. But I did my job and took care of him and your home. Then we had sometime to talk. I will surely miss him deeply. He was a wonderful man. And I enjoyed and loved what he talked about and how the both of you met. My sincere condolences to you you and your family. Always in my prayers God bless.
Kay, I am so sorry to hear about Tom’s passing. He taught me so much about trucking! I know it has been a rough few years for you guys and I pray you are comforted that his suffering here is over.

So sorry to hear of Tom’s passing. We are never prepared for this. His family are in our thoughts.
Kay I am so sorry to hear of Tom’s passing. Tom “adopted” me as his little sis in the old BOTN group. Tom was a dear friend and brother to many. Tom was always overjoyed to welcome a new grand baby into your family and often shared pictures with me. May Gods peace be your comfort.
So sorry for your loss. Went to A-F with Tom. Rest in peace.
Kay and family, My sincere condolences to you all for your loss! Tom was a great brother, I am so glad I made the trip to Joplin to meet you and him in person. May God give you comfort in knowing Tom is no longer hurting and is in a better place…
Our thoughts and prayers are with you Kay and family. Another of my Nam brothers is gone but not forgotten!! R.I.P. Tom
Like Al Hintz, the last time I saw Tom was at our class reunion. I remember the fun times we had in band. May you rest in peace.
Sorry to hear about Tom’s passing. I know he suffered from some tough health issues and he fought the good fight.
The last time I saw Tom was at the 2005 class reunion – he was the first one to come up to me with a very welcoming greeting when I walked in the door.
We had some good times in high school and those are the memories I will always have with me.
God Speed, Tom!
May The Lord hold my Brother Tom in His heart, may Kay and the family find strength in Our Lord in Tom’s passing.
Dear Kay and family. I am so sorry to hear of Brother Tom’s passing. When I first joined the old BOTN Tom callede me that very 1st. day, since then we had a great friendship. I was lucky enough to spend a few days with Tom at Mike Babbitt’s ranch, I’ll always cherish our friendship and the way Tom so proudly told me of you and the grandchildren. I’m gonna miss him.
