    I grew up with Tommy. We were neighbors. When he was in high school, on his way home he would pass our house. My mother would invite him in and give him a glass of wine. They would just sit there and talk. He was so loved by everyone even back then . I made his wedding bands for him and his wife. Sarah , Phil and family, my condolences.

    Tom was a very dear friend. We had common clients in many neighborhoods. It was a pleasure talking to Tom every time; he would talk about his children, about the business, about Church and he would ask me about the Indian Catholic Church here in Apex. A great man, a very happy and positive person I was fortunate enough to come to know. With great memories!

    Tom was a wonderful, sweet and caring man, and will be missed dearly. He talked of his family often, he was so proud. This year he will celebrate his first Christmas with Jesus, what a blessing.

    Grew up in the same neighborhood as Spicci family. Was blessed to see Tommy & Mo this past June at a neighborhood reunion. May the Lord provide comfort to all of his family. RIP Chillum comrade!
