I send my sincere condolences to the family via James since he was in class of '58 with my brother[deceased] John Gersak. I was a classmate both elementary and high school with Tom and shared neighborhood connections since we lived on Eighth Street near the Church and school. We shared many friends and I was hoping to see Tom at one of our many class reunions,but it did not work out. He was always asked about and many classmates were sincerely interested in what he was doing and where he lived.I will pray for the repose of his soul and everlasting peace.
