Tom was one of the greatest inspirations in all my sport and training also the nicest and most helpful person i have known

He was and always be a hero to me.
I know, by reputation and obvious esteem of his peers, that he was a great player and a model athlete and leader.
I also know, by experience, that he was a great man and beautiful soul.
I should know-I am his son.
