We are so sad to hear of your passing our dear friend. So, very sorry we were not here for you as we were on vacation. We all sure had alot of fun through out the years, playing cards etc. We went all the way through school together and then our husbands worked at Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company for many years together. We have alot of good memories of you and Tom and you both will always be in our hearts. Linda and Joe
P.S. Rest in peace MIckey (my fellow classmate and friend) and Tom--we love and miss you both so very much.
