This note is from Barbara Williams.....
I had a card with a very sad message from Mary Ann Larkin, as she told me
that Tom had passed away on January 18, 2005... I hadn't heard before and
didn't have any idea.. I am truly deeply saddened to learn that such a Dearly
Loved and Wonderful Shepherd Man has left us..Mary Ann said she just couldn't
talk about it for a long time..I UNDERSTAND!!!
I cannot recall a single person who ever said an unkind word about Tom or
anyone who didn't like him... He was that rare human being who made everyone
feel better by just appearing!! That warm smile and kind, gentle manner .
He was an awesome Handler of German Shepherds and was the exclusive Handler
for Marion Darling's Von Darion Kennels...handling her Ch. Fant von
Wikingerblut on into Fame ...among many other West Coast Famous Ones...
He was also fascinated with the breeding of Birds...Mainly Pigeons where
he achieved Immortality among the Fanciers.with his Homing breds.
He was that rare handsome figure, 6 foot 5 inches and yet very graceful in
the ring with a wonderful hand with the dogs..My Shepherd World of the
Glory Days of the Breed, has had many of it's Brightest Stars pass away...
..BUT
NEVER FORGOTTEN...
I plan to do a Memorial page in the Review for Tom...MaryAnn said she would
really be pleased to have one for him and she knows he would be smiling
about 'all that fuss over him'....... Anyone interested in having their names
appear, please let me know... Barbara Lee Williams
