Tom Martin became part of our family when Adrienne married Tom. Through the years he and Anne spent many Fourth of July picnics and Thanksgiving feasts at our home as well as Christmas dinners at Adrienne and Tom's. Anne was always the greatest help and brought some of our favorite dishes. Anne and Tom enjoyed lively conversations and the camaraderie of the family. When he became sick Tom still attended as many get togethers as his ailing body would allow. He would sit quietly taking in all the activity around him. Tom loved watching his family, especially Matt, enjoying the festivities. We visited Tom several times while he was in one hospital or another. Toward the end of his life, even with all the pain he endured, he was a gracious host. We know he appreciated our visits, but we enjoyed them as much as he did. You are at peace now.
We will miss you.
Carol and Richard
