    Tom was one of my favorite clients. I learned so much from him . He and Denise were perfect together..I observed quite a love story. His love for his children and Denise was immense. Tom taught me what grace is in person. Through it all, he always had a smile and we had good conversation.Many belly laughs ..good times. I will miss him terribly. I will remember his smile and his trust in me. Tom...may the angels dance and sing upon your arrival to heaven...what a loss on earth but heaven truly gained an angel. Rest easy dearest Tom .
