Tom,
Was my cousin, but wasn't my cousin, we thought we where cousins, because of the family reunions, but it was found out years later that he was actually related to my mothers sister 's husband, but it never changed how we felt, in our hearts we where family, many times I asked Tom to come and stay with me, he was a free spirit, and loved his freedom, I couldn't force him to do what I thought, and I'm sure many people tried like I did. But he was my closest of friends and we played together as kids and became great close friends in our school years, and spent many summers hanging out in the park, and went to dances, and just did a great amount of things together - to many to count,, he and I are almost the same age and as kids , he and we would throw grapes at each other during grape season, and I worked on the farm in the winter pulling brush and back then I used his winter wool BOOTS !! but his shoes will be very hard to fill now. I loved the guy like a brother. I'm going to miss him terribly, and I thank everyone who said the same.

I had known Tom all his life and he was a talented man who's work will live on long after this untimely passing. I don't know what to say except, Talena, Tyler and Jason, you know your father will be missed. God Bless you all. Aloha

Dear family,
It is with much sadness that I read the passing away of Tom. I was a Rotary exchange student from Belgium at WACS in Tom's class of 1970-1971 and we met several times at the reunions of July. It was always a pleasure to talk to him. and to read his poems.
May care and love of those around you provide comfort and peace to get you through the days ahead. My most sincere condolences.

You will always be held dear in all of our hearts and our family has had another member move to another dance floor. You always danced to a different tune that only you could hear. It took a lot of courage to follow your tune. Sometimes, I envied you so.
Tom, dance with your mom. You two look so cute together.

Tom,
You always had a way to put a smile on my face with your wit, and the twinkle in your eyes. I never heard you say a harsh word against anyone, nor turn away from helping anyone in need. Though you lived a simple life, turning away from material things, you were at peace within your soul, and that peace was infectious.
You were a man of faith, and truly walked the walk. While I am saddened that you're gone, I know that you lived your life on YOUR terms, and I have always admired that. My heart goes out to your family and friends who are left to grieve. I hope that we all can focus on a life well lived, and appreciate all that you shared with us, through your words and actions. May we all be a little kinder because of your influence.
God bless and fly high, my wonderful, quirky and fabulous friend. <3

Tom, man.
I’m 3,000 miles from Westfield now, but I’m thinking of Tom.
I wouldn’t say that Tom and I were actually friends, but in the 5 years I lived in Westfield, he and I never had a cross word to say, and we had quite a few.
In the years I performed at the Farmer’s Market, Tom would be there several times every Saturday requesting of all things, Lynard Skynard. I would instead play what became for his own personal theme song, Tumbling Tumbleweeds, at which point he would puff out his chest in an exaggerated manner and proclaim “That’s me!”
I still have a few wonderful pieces of poetry he composed for me while I was performing.
I also had the pleasure of working more directly with Tom at St. Peter’s. I never heard anyone read out loud with the presence and authority that was Tom.
I understand that not everyone got, or understood Tom, but Tom was indeed a gentle soul. An artist, a poet, a spiritual quester.
I feel honored that we crossed paths in Westfield.
Thanks Tom, you made Westfield just a bit more interesting for me, and even back here in California, you are thought of and missed.
