    Thank you Cliff for sharing those pictures.
    And on the seventh day,after resting from all that he had done,God went for a ride on his GS!
    Upon seeing that it was good, he went out again on his ZX14! But just a little bit faster!

      Nice job Cliff taking and getting the pics online. And thanks to all who got together for the service. We all felt sorrow at the loss of this man who was so clearly full of goodness, and while it certainly does not diminish the sorrow, sharing it with a group of those that feel the same elevates the sense of grace in Tom and in all of us.

        I'm glad I made it down. Thanks to Mark for helping us out-of-towners find our way around.

          We heard the call, to share a brew

          He reached out a hand to me and you

          So off we road, from here and there

          To feel the wind in the mountain air


          Around the fire, both mild and bold

          Through a cave damp and cold

          On river?s bank or a mountain top

          We ride on, and a spirit won?t stop


          Through this time, we all share

          A bit of spirit, so do take care

          From yesterday and today to you

          We raise a glass and have a brew

              Very nice words Charlie.
              Tom was there for everyone.
              I think about him often and only got to know him in his time of pain.

              He is missed by many.

                      I had the distinct pleasure of meeting Tom a couple times at Bruce's rallies. This anniversary is both happy and sad for me. Happy because I'm glad I had the pleasure of meeting him and sad because he is no longer with us.

                      Godspeed Tom.......

                      Thanks,

                        He was one of the good ones, that's for sure.
                        I hope his family is doing well.

                          December 2nd was his birthday. He would have been 60. I miss him and think about him all the time. A truly great friend.

                              Tom, was a unique guy. I did not know him real well except for the rallies but he would bend over backwards to help you out. He trailered my ED 300 miles round trip to get a chain installed when it blew on the Shasta Trip.

                                I only rode with him once but it was enough to know he was a good man, which is what others always said. All you can do is be happy you got to spend some time with him.
