A wonderful brother-in-law and fellow Habs fan, Tom will always be remembered by me as my precious sister's partner, a crossword puzzle-solving collaborator, an excellent brewer of espresso coffee, the producer of delicious honey from his hives, and maker of the most colourful & tasty apple jelly. The twinkle in his blue eyes and the sound of his laughter is what will stay with me. That he is finally free of the physical challenges of the last several years is a relief, but his absence will remain a keen sadness for those closest to him. May he rest in peace and finally reach his 'promised land'.
