    Tom was a good friend during our years together at Ross. We ran track together, did lots of things together. He was like a brother to me. I am sorry for your loss and wish I would have been able to stay in touch with him over the years. I have such fond memories of our time together. I hope and trust he had a faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Bless you and your family.

    I’m terribly sad to hear of “Cisco”s passing, especially so long after the fact. He was a great friend to my Dad, and I’ve held onto the fond memories of our visits with him through the years. I’m sorry for all of your loss, he was larger than life.
