I am reminded of what the scriptures teach about your story. To be absent from the body is to be present with Christ. One can only imagine how that came about.

I was hesitant to enter my story in the Share Your Story Contest. It didn's seem to be the right thing to do. Your scripture reference let me know it was and that I did the right thing. I can't tell you how much I appreicate your comments.

Magnificent tribute. As fine a eulogy as I've ever heard. Brilliant work concisely rendered per the constraint. You nailed Tom's laudable character--you brought him to vivid life.

This was one of the best written eulogies I have read or written. Tom, sounds like he was an amazing man and had an amazing friend in you. Well done John.

Please excuse my misspelling of express in the last sentence. It's 11:30pm and it's been a long day.

What a wonderful and beloved eulogy. You really did know your friend well and you had just the right words to send him off on his journey into the next life. Excellent non-fiction entry.

Comment from Sherry Asbury
Grand story! It is told in peaceful terms without maudlin interludes. I like the references to sailing and safe harbors. I know your friend rests well after a life like his. You wrote this well and with respect.
