Sad to find that Tom, a bright and positive light in the world, has passed.  My  condolences to all who were close to him in the trajectory of his life.  I last saw Tom at least  10 years ago for a brief visit and had known him as part of the Lincoln Park Therapy Collective.  Though I moved from Chicago many years ago, he came to mind many times over the years because he was so special. I know his spirit lives on.
