    My thoughts and prayers are with the family as they mourn the loss of their loved one.
    We went to St. Francis of Assisi grade school together through out our grade school years. We learned together and played together both in school and outside of school and laughed and were ornery together. We knew each other and each other’s families. The memories are forever.
    May Tommy rest in peace in God’s loving arms.
