Sincere condolences to Tom's very large family! Such joy in life to love so much and to father so many children, the absolute pleasure of each individual! He has gone far too young, but lived life to its fullest, many live much longer,yet far emptier lives. Again, I am so very sorry for such a great loss to so many, I have known Ton for such a long time, Life ls so precious, and far too often, very short..
