December 14, 2015 at 4:45 pmI 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.

December 14, 2015 at 9:05 pmTom 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!
