    My thoughts and prayers go out to Renee and family. Tom will be missed by all those people who knew him. I will always remember being in their wedding as a bridesmaid and our memories of Sing Out Lehigh Valley. We had great times! Love you all!

    Mr. Tom was an absolute pleasure to get to know. He made an impression on all of our therapists. He called us his “Godesses of pain” and signed that on our wall at his last session with us. I will always remember him! Prayers for your entire family and much love.
