Oh, dear Shary, I just found out. I’m so very sorry. We lost a great man on earth. Thank you to Tom for everything you did and the person you were. Many hugs and prayers out to you, Shary and to your family. I’m sure Tom doesn’t need them now – I have faith that he is in a wonderful place.

Tom, I am sooo sorry we didn’t get the chance to share a bottle of good RED with you and Shary, as we tried to plan in the years passed, but I have faith we will have our chance ONE DAY. Prayers for peace and comfort for Shary and JT! We may not be close in proximity but know that we are close in spirit. We love you! Sherri . . . . . and Bob
