Always love going into associated Buyers—Tom being one of the reasons. He was fun to talk with and we shared a lot of good stories during the past three years. I also remember him at Annlens. He was always so knowledgeable about furniture —just a great salesman and man. He will be greatly missed as he was a very special individual to so many people, family, and friends.
