From Maria Roca-Bey (Squirl #2)

For the past day I haven't been able to stop thinking about Tom and how he was always smiling. I can still hear the sound of him laughing. Every time I would run into Tom, I would stop to talk to him and catch up on things. That's the kind of person Tom was, not just someone who says "hello" in passing, but a guy who always had something funny or interesting to share and he wanted to know how you were too. He truly cared about his friends. If you knew Tom at all, you were his friend.

There aren't many guys I can think of, other than Tom, who could hold their own with a bunch of chicks on trainers watching The Bachelor...
