To Wendy and all of Tom's family. My deepest condolences. Last time I caught both of you was I was riding and we saw each other briefly as you both were on the scoot at Needles. We were heading out on our own journey. May peace be with him now on his other journey and with all of you.
Peace, Light and Strength
