Our prayers are with you Tom, and with your family.
Many wonderful memories over the past 70 years (since St Xavier College days) have run through my mind.
Ann will be missed!
Ann went to St. Xavier with my mom Alice Rust Henehan and was in her wedding. Mom would love to send a card to Tom if she/we had his current address. As a child I rememer visiting the family home and feeling very welcomed by Ann.
