Such sad news. Tom was a very unique man with the biggest heart ever. He was genuine. If he liked your dog, he let you know. I have such good memories of him. He always had a wise crack to say that made me laugh, but he also gave me words of wisdom. I listened very close because he only would say it once. He will be missed greatly. He was a wealth of knowledge......an Ambassador to our breed. My heart goes out to his family and his close dear friends, Sandy, Debbie, George B. Tom.....I'm going to miss you buddy.
