    I know it was 4 years ago, but I just learned of Toms death. He was my mentor for 5 years back in the 80’s & we had grown close at the time. I am very sad as I had wished to try to reconnect with Tom. If Mary Lou is still with us & you indeed get this note, please give her my condolences & love
