Tommy was a great guy! So sorry to hear of his sudden passing. We just drove by yesterday and thought we saw him in his garage with his red truck door open… Tommy helped till our garden last year, and was generous with his tomato seedlings. I worked with Tommy frequently at the Donald Trump Headquarters on the Square where he volunteered as a Salesperson – he was always willing to cover a shift, and was a welcome personality to have around. Another good friend, Danny Owens, who worked with Tommy told me that Tommy was the best wire man on the job (AT&T?), and had a stellar reputation for doing top notch work every time. I know Tommy was a Christian, and for that I am eternally grateful that his future is secure in the hands of Jesus! May God bless Tommy’s family in this time of loss.

To Mrs. Kay Brewer, Amy and Caleb, I am so sorry for your loss. I pray you find real peace from God.
Two scriptures from the Bible have been comforting to many are John 11:25 and Revelation 21:1-4. Please read about the hope Jesus offers to those who have passed away and to those who loved them. I hope it helps. Steve

We are so sorry to hear about your loss. Losing a loved one isn’t easy. Our loving God invites us at 1 Peter 5:7 ” to throw all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you.” May God give you courage and strength to sustain you in the days ahead. At John 5:28,29 Jesus spoke about a resurrection for our loved ones. These verses helped me to cope with the death of my brother and father may it do the same for you and your family.
