I first met Jean and Tom when I taught Patti in elementary school - they were supportive and friendly. When we joined O.P.C we made their acquaintance again. Family and friends have been blessed to have known them as a special couple. My deepest sympathy to all.
In my period of time at London Life my many contacts with Tom were always interesting and enjoyable. Tom was the consummate gentleman. He always had a positive attitude. He was highly respected by everyone. London Life was lucky to have him.
I am PSW at McCormick home and I had the honour of providing care and getting to know this Wonderful Man. He had such a Love of life for himself, family and others he had meet through his journey of life. He was such a caring soul. I will miss visiting with you! RIP Tom!
