Friend indeed. I had many good times with Tommy. I was often a guest in his house and he helped me out more than once in big ways and small, I'll miss him. I met him one night after the last Feile, which had been a climatic washout. I remarked to Tommy that he looked a bit down. 'Well'he said, 'it's Monday, it's raining and I lost about 25 grand last weekend. Maybe that's why I look the way I am.' He bounced back then and many times over the years. Never gave up. A fair man to belt out a song and loved a good story. We should all mourn his passing but be proud and happy to have known him. Slan, auld stock.
