Sorry to hear of Tom's passing he was a good man and I enjoyed his company. He was a no nonsense kind of person and I respected him for upfront no nonsense personality. He told what he thought and you agreed or you didn't. But he didn't play games I enjoyed and am glad to of known him. I worked with him for 6 years at wurms and knew him what seems like forever. Rest in peace Tom and condolences to his wife and family he will be missed.
