    My deepest sympathies to Tom’s wife and daughter, and extended family. I have known Tom for many many years as his family and my family where good friends, and we grew up together. I will miss his smile and wave as I drive by his home on my school bus. RIP MY dear friend.

    Dear Dee and Lindsay – we are so sorry about Tom’s passing. He was a quiet, kind and thoughtful person. We will forever remember his smile, chuckle and dry sense of humour. And we will never forget how he went out of his way to help us and so many others in times of need. We will be there Friday to share our condolences in person and to celebrate Tom’s life.

    Richard, Terry, Jenna, Brooke and Richard Jr.

    Dee, Lindsay and Family.

    We are saddened to hear of Tom’s passing. He was such a wonderful gentleman. Like Cliff and Grant Stonehouse, Tom was one of the last ‘old school’ tow truck drivers around. His skills, his attitude, and his compassion will truly be missed in the community. Our thoughts are with you all at this time.

    Kevin, Stephanie, Cale and Leanne Holmes.
