I was so sorry to hear of Tommy's passing. Good friend, good guy.
Sandy, we are so sorry for your loss, you are in our prayers. I enjoyed Tom's friendship in high school and we had many visits in my Russellville office. He always kept me up on classmates and what was happening in their lives. I will always miss those visits.
God bless you and comfort you.
So sorry for your loss; Tommy was a good friend since 3rd grade at Ellen Smith.
I am so saddened to learn of Tommy’s passing!!! I met Tommy my freshman year at the University of Arkansas. I didn’t have a car at school and Tommy had that long red Chevrolet Impala. I would ride as far as Conway and my dad would meet me at Stormy’s Dairy Bar. Tommy had the biggest heart and was a gentle giant. He expressed a strong desire to take care of his parents and felt like pro football could be the way to do that. Although I had not seen Tommy in a good number of years the news hit me hard. He was one of the kindest, sweetest guys I knew. Everyone loved our “Key Block”!!! My sincere condolences to his family. You lost a good man.
We are so sorry for your loss. Our prayers for the family.
My family and I extend our prayers and deepest condolences to Sande and family during this time of loss
So sorry for your loss. Prayers for your family.
Sandy, we are so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Tom and I were friends and team mates on the CHS football and track team. Condolences to your family.
With our deepest sympathies,
Jim, Danette, Greg & Gina Fiddler
