Tributes
  1. I am shocked and sad to read of Tom’s sudden passing this evening.

    Tom loved his family, his friends and his veggie garden which was productive all year round with no self respecting weed game enough to ‘pop its head up’ as Tom would be onto it immediately!!

    We were close neighbours for 48 years and I have many fond memories over all these years of times spent together BBQ’ing, chatting, coffee and the banter we often had but most of all the laughter we shared.
    R.I.P.Tom.

    To Marge, Dean, Troy, Melissa and your families
    I send you all warm hugs, love and peace knowing Tom is now at rest. X X X X

    Much love to you all,
    Sue, Rachael, Kimberly & Glenn X X X X
