“Our very deepest condolences to your family. Thomas was a man of few words but was so dear to those of us that had the pleasure to have know him. Our prayers are with you all at this time, God bless.”
“When we were children playing on our grandparent’s farm, there was never a time that Thomas did not stop to wave to us and say hello. Even as a child, I remember thinking how hard he always worked. Sunday dinners at Nanny and Poppie’s with Thomas present are one of my favorite childhood memories. May God bless you and your family. “
