So sorry for your loss, John.
Tom was among the best the LFD had. He was the consummate professional on the Fireground, as well as being someone it was a pleasure to be around in a station. We are diminished by his passing, since they don't make 'em like Tommy anymore.
My sincere condolences to you John and your family. May your good memories of your Dad outweigh any sadness. God bless
My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family, John. With sincerest sympathy, Carla

Tom was a great officer, firefighter, mentor, and friend to so many and an integral part of the LPFFA family. His contributions to this community helped make so many lives that much better. He gave so much more than he ever took and will be sadly missed, yet his name will evoke many happy memories and stories. Rest in peace brother.

Words aren't enough to tell you how much I miss and love you Dad. I was definitely Daddys girl and I looked so forward to seeing you almost every day. There is definitely a huge void, I miss so much, but I am so proud of you Dad for all you've done for not only your dedication to the LFD , but your family. Dad never judged anyone for any reason. One in a million is who you are. I love you more than I can ever convey. Love Forever San xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
I actually remember Tommy from when I was a very small girl, he and my father started on the fire department on the same day and became good friends. I will always remember him as a happy man who always had smiles for everyone. My peace, love and respect to a dear man and to his family. May you finally find peace and may you soar with the angels Tommy. xoxo
Tom was indeed a wonderful colleague, a man who rarely if ever did not have a smile on his face or a kind gesture word to say to others. Rest in peace Captain Armer.
