Tom was a great artist and human being. I am grateful for the insight and wisdom he freely shared. He will be missed by many. He is one of the most innovative independents.

Is there a contact for sending support for his family or a memorial?

I wish his family and friends peace.

Tom's legacy will live on!

This is such a tragic event , for a life full of passion for something positive , to be over soon.
May God Grant him entrance into heaven, to live his passion for music forever.

My sincere condolence to all family members and friends of his.

This is sad news indeed. My prayers and thoughts go out to Toms Family.
It's always sad when you learn of a hand drum maker's passing being that there are not vary many out there with this wonderful gift.
He will be missed.
RIP my friend.
