Love your birthday tribute to one of my favorite writers and guys.
You captured his fun and unique personality. He is one of a kind that always is entertaining. He has a unique and intelligent view of the world.
Best wishes,
Mary

Mary, I love your view of Tom! He is pretty cool!
I can't thank you enough for the very kind words for Tom and his poem. I hope he is also reading all of the lovely birthday messages.
I appreciate it so very much, my dear friend.

Comment from Paul Manton
Dear Debi, Here is one of my all-time favorite people on FanStory. I love his writing and his reviews equally. Being quirky, we both appreciate each other's off the wall humor.
I see you have chosen several unusual videos, to go with Tom's sense of fun. I think Tom would also like Victor Borge, whose very silly musical jokes are so clever.
Your lovely iambic heptameter, so good for telling story poems, works as well as ever to make this great tribute to our dear friend. Happy Birthday, Tom! Keep me smiling - I'll try to do the same for you.

Your dad obviously had very good taste! He must have passed that on.

Hi Paul, just wanted to let you know that your music reached my email, and I already thanked Jim. But I did listen to some of these and was wondering if these are from your teaching days. They are awesome and I will treasure them. This is how I have some of Roys music now. I copied it from the CDs that he sent me and if you'd like I can try to send you some if you have never heard him sing. Thanks so very much, my awesome friend. You are so special and I can't believe you have been here such a short time for the friendship we have.
Please take care of yourself too, as I am worried about you, and am praying for you.

Glad you got the music. the compostion dates are on all of them, starting with 1985, when I was a minister at All souls, Langham Place. The last two compositions were from Christmas last year.
Love from Paul
-
I think because I am using my iPad the dates are not showing. I don't know what other reason there would be. But regardless I do appreciate them very much. Thank you.

Don't worry, Debi.
I have another music file you might like. I'll send it to Jim soon.

Comment from Pam Lonsdale
When I saw this was written for Tom, I had to read it. Quirky, indeed! In reviewing his latest write yesterday, I told him he was always a "pinch" different. I like that about him.
Happy birthday, Tom! And thanks to Debi for letting us know:-)

Just need to change 'foots'' to 'foot's'.
Otherwise this is another lovely tribute to a definitely quirky gentleman and writer. Don't you worry about reviewing. You make sure you are healthy and strong! Take care. x

I will admit, the first time I read something of Tom's I was taken aback. Not so much by his post, but by his response to my review. Quirky is appropriate. I decided I had to follow him just for his unique sense of humor. Happy birthday to you, Tom. Gretchen

Oh yes indeed, Tom is quite unorthodox, also your observations about him being pretty quirky are spot on. He's about 6' 7" tall, but I didn't know he was ten years older than his wife, he has two daughters too I think, you are such a good soul, I can see God applauding you for using your great talent to bless others, well done, blessings Roy

An ode to Tom Horonzy. He seems like such good fun. Great words. I appreciate the layout and the photograph. Quirky, unorthodox he appears to be so. I don't know the man but I'd like to share a beer with him. A little lovely thank you gift.

Comment from karenina
A fine poem for a man who always keeps me smiling... and occasionally scratching my head.
He sure loves God, Country, and his dear wife...
He is quirky! In the best possible way!
Did you just say:
"For health reasons my writing time is limited..."
I'm well aware of your health issues but sweet thing?
If THIS pace is "limited writing time" I need to check if I have a pulse!
Girl? You dream in rhyme!

Hi my dear K., I had to post something in notes so theres no confusion of why and who gets these. I did word it wrong, so changed it to screentime. Obviously some think I am singling out just friends.
But even tho it doesn't matter how sick I am, I will not let anyone down. I wrote till late last night w covid and 101 temp because to me its a commitment that I promised. But you did make me smile w your sweet remark about limited time. LOL - can you imagine if l tried to review everyone in my pm box too?

Comment from CrystieCookie999
What a nicely done tribute for Tom Horonzy. Here are the lines I like best:
He tears up for our flag, wears his emotions on his sleeves
His faith so strong in God, and proud to tell how he believes
And thankful for his blessings and for all that he receives
I bet this will make him smile all day, or even two days almost straight without stopping.
