Sorry to hear about Tom. My last memory of him is when he came in to pay his insurance a couple of weeks ago. We joked about his insurance and he said he thought his grandma had probably paid off his truck since he didn't need full coverage anymore. He was in good spirits. I will miss his hearty laughter whenever he came into the office.
