Six-Million-Dollar-Man

Growing up, Tom wasn't just my cousin...he was my big brother. One year for Halloween, I dressed as the Six Million Dollar Man. After trick or treating with Tom and some of my friends, the two of us would go thru the candy and go back and forth as the good and bad guys...taking turns pretending to be the Six Million Dollar man.

Tom shared his love of the outdoors with me. Growing up, we'd visit a local creek, pull crayfish and drive my mom crazy bringing them home. At anytime, we'd both become Cheech & Chong and would recite, word for word, thier comedy routines. I think I shared my first beer with Tom, listened to Lynyrd Skynyrd, Frampton and Bob Seger while cruising in his El Camino. Or how I burned my legs on the side-pipes of his car one day when we all went to the Zoo.

I'll never forget his smile, laugh, stories and the way he always made wherever he was...such a great place to be.

Deb & Michael, Elissa and I send you love, support and prayers across the miles. And we hope to see you soon.

And Michael, You have your fathers sense of humor, his gift of making others happy and you are a good man. I know that he's so very proud of you.
