Sorry to read that Tommy has past away. I remember him well since he and Maddie lived accross the street from me when I grew up on 6th Avenue in Kenosha. He was a good friend in those early years, and I'm sure life wasn't always great for his family, since I believe we had very few Afircan Americans in Kenosha at that time. I would have to look back in my Spy, but think that was probably true of our graduating class as well. I'm glad he had so much success on the baseball diamond, and looks like he was a good worker, and a good family man, Rest in Peace, Tommy.
