To Heidi & The Family,

May God enfold You All in His Loving embrace. Tommy was more than a Friend, He was a Dear Friend and Brother to so many. May Your memories bring You comfort.

Peace & Blessings,

Tonia 

To the family, I am very sorrowed to hear of Thomas’s transition. He was an amazing gent, bold and personable. Loved his family and the Lord. One of my favorite cousins growing up in Detroit.  My deepest sympathies and heartfelt condolences. 

Trust in God. You will see him again and soon. Blessings to you. 

Best Regards 

Grew up with Tommy in church from a young age.  Remembering him on the church basketball team the CT Hawks and I was one of CT Hawks cheerleaders, it was a fun time.  As young people with did skits and fashion shows was just a fun time.  Tommy was such a wonderful guy.  Glad to have grown up with him in church.  Prayers continue for the family. May continue continue to provide strength and comfort.

Dear Heidi and family, the news of T.J.'s passing leaves us deeply saddened. The Jessup family was among the first families to embrace my family and me when we  joined the Adventist Church in 1980.  Although he could hold his own  in a conversation,  of the four siblings, Clifton, Malcolm, Cynthia and Tommy, TJ was usually the quiet, but cheeky, thinker.  My family and I were blessed to have become acquainted with him.  How I long for the day, when "the Lord Himself shall descend with a shout..."  Then, no more farewells.

Until the grand reunion, may the grace of our Heavenly Father comfort, strengthen and keep each of you.

With much love and respects as we await the "first resurrection",

D.L. McPhaull and the McPhaull family
