As a friend and co-worker to Lindy, I’d like to express my deepest sympathy to Tom’s entire family. I know you have all traveled a long road with him. And while it might seem as if he lost his battle to cancer, I pray you all find comfort in believing that he truly won the eternal prize of heaven and will see you again one day. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Hi, Carol.I lost my wife in November after watching her fight illness. It is particular pain to see a spouse pass along.My best advice is that you totally embrace God and immerse yourself in Christ through His word. My deepest condolences. God bless,Jim
