We had some good times growing up. Making you eat mud pies, leaving you stuck in a tree, sleigh riding and drinking mad dog. RIP

I'm so very very sorry for your loss. I remember him well. RIP
As the father of my two youngest (twins) Tommy was as good a man IN LIGHT and DESPITE OF the negativity he was born into and grew up in/around. I pray that Tommy has FINALLY found peace! I will always love him despite the good, bad, right or wrong of living in a world that only chooses to see the bad. I would be the last person to cast a stone as should any naysayers!
As the last comment being the last child my father was given to make. Despite only seeing my father a couple of times I loved this man through anything. The first time I could ever comprehend him in a memory was when I was 15 and I thought I was going to kill this man me feeling so unwanted for my brother and myself. I couldn’t because when I looked at him I finally saw the man I’ve always wanted to see I felt true happiness. my questions till this day would be why did you not want to be around us, why couldn’t you love us the way you loved a high or put anything else but your kids. It being December 6 2021 i will forever cry because the memories I did get to share with my father I loved for the fact he was my father. Yes I knew what he had done but that was my father. I forever held a place in my heart for you. But the only thing you made me feel out of the world was loneliness, heartbreak, unwantedness And betrayal my dear father Thankyou for putting my family and myself through the roughest patch in our life to make us stronger as we did. It’s funny the last day I seen this man was the day he told me he gave it all up for my twin brother and I. Just so we could be together my momma, him my sisters and my brother and myself. I do hope and pray your looking up at us. But pray for your peace and that you’ve found it.
My sincere sympathy on the passing of Tommy. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers.
