I haven't been on my computer for a couple days and I just found out what happened. I'm extremely upset to hear the news. I can't believe how sudden this is. I had been looking forward to meeting up with him and everyone else for another Utah M5 meet.

I want to say that I met Tom once at the Utah M5 meet not too long ago. He was an EXTREMELY COOOOL individual. We were talking about cars and stuff at the coffee shop before we went out on the drive and I mentioned something about wishing I had a better camera for taking pictures and without hesitation he said, here use mine. At first I told him no thanks for fear that I'd break his really expensive camera but he insisted. So I snapped a few shots of my beast. Then he said I'll put these pictures on my site and you can d/load them from there or whatever. Then later he even shot a short video of my exhaust after he was done with his. Later that night I d/loaded all the pics and the vid I was VERY appreciative of his cander. He was a class act to say the least, I couldn't believe what an awesome person he was. He was so helpful, I was thouroghly impressed with his willingness to help anyone and everyone. He really did have passion.

I don't have the words to tell you how deeply saddened I am for you and your family's loss. May Tom's spirit be with you now and for his memory live on.

I know I'll never forget him.
