Uncle Tom was a cheerful person with a brilliant smile. He had ideas for fun activities and was a constant presence throughout my life. I remember him taking me for walks around the harbour bridge on Sundays and taking me on interesting outings. His Christian life never faltered and that was a strong example to what I wanted to follow in my life. His loss is keenly felt and in particular for Aunty Eva.
I will miss Tom. He has filled such a large place in our lives. I was bridesmaid when he and Eva were married. He is very much missed.
