We can not even begin to express the thoughts and prayers we are sending your way. Tom was loved by many because he had the kindest soul and loving heart. When people say "give the shirt off his back" they're speaking of Tom. He would give a helping hand to a complete stranger, and leave with a new close friend. It's just who he was. He will be missed, loved, and never forgotten.
We love you,
Robin and Steve Stroich
