Tommy was one of a kind and I'm so glad I made his acquaintance during the summer of 1979. After that, everywhere he'd see me, he'd come over to give me a hug. "Patricia" he'd call me, the pah-trrree-see-ah so reminiscent of the Spanish people of my youth. Somewhere I have a picture of Tommy with Joseph (Atencio) in his arms. Tommy, Ramos and Joey were always best buds. Rest in Peace my friend. I'm so happy I got to know you.
