I worked with Tommy in DSM with Ozark for about 5 years. I always enjoyed the person that he was. Always joking and happy go lucky. Blessings to the family and friends. Go Getters--3 Swallows will get you there.

I worked for AA in DSM and remember Tommy well from his days with TWA and then seeing him commuting to STL after the merger with AA. He always had a smile.
Prayers for your family.
