One of the toughest boys/men I ever knew. From the time he was a little boy he had it rough and he never gave up. Tommy rest in peace and give your mom Aunt Bessie and Grandma Roxie a big hug. My dad John Will and mom Julia Mae (your mom Bessie’s sister) Johnson always talked very highly of you. Love you Tommy. Cousin Linda Johnson and Joe Scorsone.
Tommy was such a kind, wonderful man. Many fond memories! Heaven gained sweet soul!
Diana and Family so sorry for your loss. My prayers and thoughts are wit you.

Tommy was a very nice man. I put a metal roof on his home several years ago, and became friends with Tommy and Diana. They were very nice to me and good people. My thoughts and prayers are with Tommy, Diana and all his loved ones.
