Tom is my first cousin! There were 10 first cousins on my Mom's side of the family. My Mom had three children and my Aunt Elly has 7 children! I always thought my sister Kathy looked a lot like Denny (they were both the oldest in each family), I looked a lot like Tom (because we both were olive complected like our Grandfather Tomas Legaspi Almazan who Tom (Tomas) was named after. Also Tom's sister Jackie and my brother Mark looked similiar with their red hair. The rest of the kids JaNae, (looks like her Mom) Tiffany, Chad and Jennifer look more like their Dad, My Uncle Del. I had a bright green car a Ford Fiesta when I moved to Utah in 2016 and if Tom caught sight of it before I could get to his shop from the road he was already outside just waiting to see what was wrong with my car this time! One time while he was going to look to see what was wrong I told him I was going to walk up the street and get lunch. He told me to get back into my car in the passenger seat and he drove me to McDonald's and paid for my lunch. I told him "No", but he wouldn't hear of it. He also gave me a good price. I am pretty sure he lost money on every time I came in, but he is the only honest mechanic I know and it was fun to visit with him. One time I had a lot of books in my car and he said to friend that works with him "Hey, Kyle did you know Suzanne has a library in her car?" I thought that was so funny. He was very quick-witted and was very nice to people! Don't even get me started on his chocolate chip cookies! YUM! I miss you cousin! :)

Tom was our family mechanic and taught me how to work on cars in high school He was a dear friend who I deeply respected. He was kind to all and always willing to help me. I became a mechanic because of him. I will miss him and his kindness as will all who knew him.

Tom's compassion for others in need was a great example to me. He worked hard and without pay to help single moms and others down on their luck with cars and became a tremendous blessing to so many in their time of need. We always knew Tom would be honest with our car problems and trusted him any time we had to reach out to him. He would go out of his way to explain and give us options and assure us. But most importantly he was a solid, kind, and loving man who we trusted. I loved seeing Erica talk about the little things they would do to show each other how much love and respect they had for each other.."My Tom". I recall so many of her efforts to make anniversaries and birthdays special with picture books, special notes, meaningful gifts and detailed tokens of love. They both teamed up to be there for their girls and grands in the smallest and biggest ways and were always concerned for their welfare both physically, spiritually and emotionally and centered their lives on helping where they could. I'm grateful for the loving examples. Our prayers go out to Erica, the girls, grands, and all family during this difficult time.

Tom was a sharer of money. He bought me my first pair of vans. He would sneek my kids money when we came to visit. Him and I shared a common bond, people were intimidated by us. But when they got to know him found out he was the most giving and kind person. He will be missed and thought of every day. You can't put out his light, his memory, and goodness will shine forever.

My heart goes out to Erica, and to Tom's daughters and sweet grandbabies. Erica always referred to Tom as "My Tom", and he truly is her sweetheart. I am grateful for the years of happiness that he brought her, and happy to know that they will be united again one day. Tom made a big impression on all who knew him, and made us all want to be better people.
