I am representing fellow officer, Randy Benson. Randy sends his deepest sympathies. He remembers Tom and his wife and having dinner with them. He remembers taking coffee breaks with Tom and working along side him. God bless Tom’s family during this difficult time.

How I will miss you my wonderful brother. You were and always will be my protector.

Although my heart is breaking right now, I know you are no longer in pain and that you are with Dad, in the lovig arms of our Savior, which gives me such great comfort.

I will love you always and in all ways.
