Tom was so loyal to his clients and co worker ar the ISDH. I was thinking of him the other day. He gave me a wonderful pin from his aunt’s collection- – a pink flamingo. Wonderful sense of humor and so generous with his time. My thoughts go to his friends and family.

Tom was my boss at the Indiana Crippled Children welfare dept on 238 meridian from 88 to 89…. It was one of my best jobs and a secure job and was sorry I left due to my parents decision to return to IUPUI. He was always funny. I enjoyed working for him and Vicki. I am saddened to hear.
