It was a shock to read that Tom has passed, much too soon. He was a consummate musician, entertainer, and bandleader who I met and performed with on my very first show, in the Landmark Theater - comedian Pat Cooper and accordionist Dick Contino. He was brilliant at the piano, and was a great singer as well. He would call me for trio dates after that, until he relocated to San Diego. It was always a pleasure accompanying him on any stage. My sincerest sympathies to his family and friends.
