My sincerest condolences to Tom’s family and especially his confreres in Glasnevin and throughout the Christian Brothers Ireland Province. I first met Tom many years ago when he came to Belfast – a tough posting for a gentleman. Most recently revived that friendship during my work with the old St. Mary’s Province and ERST. Tom always had time for a conversation and a bit of craic. I am so sorry to hear of his death. I will fondly remember him.
