Wow, how time passes so quickly and slowly at the same time. I cannot say I was close to Tommy, but I can say I have fond memories of him. I met Tommy in middle school, and like so many that have posted on social media, he has not changed from being a kind person with anyone he crossed paths with. Tommy is a friend to all, casting no judgement and including everyone. After all these years, he made such an impression on me, with him not even knowing his impact he will be greatly missed. My love goes out to him, his family, and his dear friends. That they may all know what a treasure he is in this world and into the next. Love.

in honor of Thomas.

Tommy, you were—and always will be—a bright light. From the moment I met you, I felt at ease in your presence, and the way you showed up for your friends was truly unmatched. Nick is heartbroken that he can't be here and already misses you so much.

I'll miss seeing your car outside when you’d stop by to visit Nick, and our banter about Costa Rica and wellness retreats. You always wanted to make a difference in the world, and looking at these messages here and on Facebook, it’s clear that you did.

I’m so grateful I got to know you. It’s hard to believe our last message was just four days ago—you had sent me that video of your Life Day celebration back in January. Life is so precious and fleeting. You taught me to be more open to others in their struggles and to spread more love. You had the ultimate social work heart.

I hope you can feel all the love surrounding you now. I promise, to the best of my ability, to help your mom bring to life your shared mission and dream. Wishing you a peaceful transition—see you on the other side, my friend.

I remember the many times we just sat and talked. Sometimes we would talk to the wee hours in the morning. Tommy, you were always a good friend. You had people’s back even when they didn’t deserve it. You were a special gift to this earth and many people are sad by your passing. I have to be honest I didn’t believe it at first. I just want everyone to know what kind of special person he was. Life will not be the same.
