So very sorry to hear about the loss of my college roommate. He taught me so much about life as we ate Doritos and played Skip Bo until the wee hours in the morning. I remember his crazy socks and his infectious laugh. He was a beautiful person. God Bless you and your family. I will miss you, Toes.

As the Coach of UW-Green Bay Swim and Dive team, I recruited Tom to our team and school. It was an honor to do so. He was a talented athlete, a wonderful caring young man, and after his diving ended, a great diving coach for us. Please accept my condolences.
