While we will miss this amazing man, he has left a spiritual legacy that will never die. His life epitomized the love, joy, and peace of Christ. His intellect and wisdom benefited his many friends and students of the Word. He had so much to give and did so until the Lord called him home. Tommie was a renaissance man, being gifted in so many areas. We know that he is rejoicing today as he explores the secrets of the heavenly realm. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family in this time of sorrow. May special grace cover each of them.
