Weed,

As I sit here the morning after your services reflecting on our relationship, the gravity of your passing is finally hitting home. So many memories. I will never forget your stubborness and your devotion to both the Department and your family. Your humility that allowed you to embrace the nickname "Weed" even though you knew that it was based on your uncanny resemblence to the cartoon character Tumbleweed. This nickname grew with you and transformed with you. You became like a pesky lawn 'weed' continuing to grow and flourish no matter what was thrown at you. No matter what the task, you put your heart and soul into the situation. You were a pleasure to supervise and an even bigger pleasure to have as a friend. I will miss you. Rest peacefully knowing that your fellow officers will be looking out for Dodi and the kids. You should be very proud of them. They have shown remarkable resolve and perserverance during this time.

As was stated in the services and many times on this site;

Rest in peace brother, we'll take it from here.

P.S. I know you were watching the Penn State game last night, thanks for whatever influence you had on that Ohio State fumble.

Rest in Peace Brother

To the Family of Officer Tome
Your complete family are in my families prayers during this dark time. My family is just starting to make it thru a lost of our own with the death of my future son in-law Josh Norris. David was taken to early and should of had more time with you guys and I know words at this time will never stop the hurt. Just would like you to know your Husband and Dad is not far from you, he is the whisper in the wind, that feeling of being hugged when no one is there, he will always be at your side watching over ever accomplishment and catching ever tear that you guys shed. What has helped my family and may help yours, remember your love ones laugh, his smile and all those things that are unique to him, since they are truly what made him. Your police family extends it arms to you, if this one from Louisiana can do anything do not hesitate to ask. God bless you and may he give you strength.
