Tommy was a special man! He knew my papaw and they always had a lot of things to talk about. We graduated with Greg and feel like we have known this family for many years. We loved Tommy so much and he will be deeply missed. Prayers for Shelia and the rest of the family. Tommy is home now singing around God's throne. Love you all

I adored and loved this man and his family. His family loved me enough to let me sing with them as an early teenager and I will forever be grateful for that. Sheila was and is so precious and loving. Greg and Ginger was like extra siblings to me. We had such fun together. We've known each other since we were nearly toddlers. My dad worked at the Maryville Fire Department with him and sang in a gospel quarter also so our families would be at singing together alot of times. Those are special memories that I'll never forget and will always cherish. I am so happy that Tommy is rejoicing around the throne with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. My Love and prayers go out to the family. Know that I love each of you very much.
