You have written about Tom before Regina and I have long since marveled st his incredible courage and saintly attitude. I read about him again after receiving your great new book from Gray Publishers. It was a blessing to be able to put a face to his name! Thank you!❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤

Beautiful tribute; And food for thought. *As I think on it further, I should have liked to meet Tom; Perhaps he could have taught me a thing or so. I became disabled 7.5 years ago and have a lot of difficulty living peacefully with it.

I lost my brother/best friend three years ago and not a day goes by without me thinking about him. It was supposed to be different. We were supposed to grow old(er) together.
