• Though we attended several family get-togethers on Prosper St. over the years when our grandparents were alive, our paths did not really cross again until a few years ago for several pot-lucks with the next generation. At a pot-luck at Janice and Tom’s, it was great to see his gardening skills and sample his wine. Our condolences to Janice and family.

• I learned a lot from Tom's common sense approach to officiating. In particular was his advice on listening to coaches, when you knew they were wrong. A thoughtful ear and a "Thank you coach" goes a long way. The MFOA lost a great official when he decided to hang up cleats. My condolences to his family. - Posted by: Adam Paradowski (Friend and former Ref) on: May 19, 2020
