Dearest Tom, It is only today that, through happenstance of surfing the web, I found out about your death. I am full of questions. How? Why? Do you remember when we first met, in 1995? You were always one of my closest friends. I know we spoke of meeting one day but that day never came. You gave me my first computer, do you remember? I kept it for several years and only recently passed it on to someone else who needed a computer. You were always so giving in that way. I remember you talking about the asbestos in your lungs and the dream you had that you would not make it til you were 40. I guess you were right, after all. I've thought of you many times in the past several years and my heart is heavy with the thought of your loss. I guess somehow I thought you would always be there. I'm weeping as I write this. You never really got to see me mature into a Lady at all. I was still so innocent, niave and childish when you knew me. You changed my life, Tom. I'll never forget you. Love always, Wendy.

It's taken me almost a year to write this. And it's still probably one of the hardest things I've ever done. I miss you, my dear friend, more than you'll ever know. You sent me an email earlier the day of the accident. The first words you wrote were "I know you probably hate me right now..." I remember thinking, god, nothing could be further from the truth, but an email is not the place to say it. I'll speak to you later tonight when I see you on IRC...but you didnt come back. 5 days later I found ou about the accident. I've carried that guilt around with me for almost a year now. The thought that one of my best friends died thinking I hated him, tears me up inside. I loved you Tom. You were the one who was always there for me. Always ready with a shoulder when I nee ed one. And I miss you incredibly. Whenever things get too tough, I always hear you in my mind saying "there's still a spot saved for you on that island". We always joked we would run away to an island together, escape the bad things in our lives, and sit back and drink mai tais. LOL you even sent me that wav of "islands in the stream" and played it when I needed to be reminded that someone was there for me who cared. I hope you've found your island Tom, and I hope you will still save that spot for m . I love you and miss you!!!

Its been 5 months, 5 long months......well, life is short and opportunities missed. Meeting Daunt was one of those missed opportunities I will always regret. I still `member daunt, not a day goes by that I log onto IRC and look for Daunt's name on my no ify, but then reality strikes and I remember. I'm ready to claim my raincheck now. I miss you Tom....my heart goes to your family, for I know they miss you too.

:x I had to begin my thoughts with that, because Tom would often do that if he thought he said something out of line, or something he shouldn't have said. It's strange that I am here typing this now, because I am missing you so much tonight buddy. On the e Friday nights, home alone, is when I would pour my glass of chocolate milk, and sat here talking to my "bestest" irc buddy ever. I'll keep our long talks on the puter and on the phone in my heart forever bud. You're where we all dream of being, and all our friends will be here remembering you, and holding you in our hearts. May God bless your family and your friends...... and believe me Daunt!: you will NEVER be forgotten my friend. I love you......Baby

Well, I finally made it here. This is probably one of the hardest things that I have done in a very long time. Thomas Brown was one of the best friends that I ever had. And I never met him personally. We were suppose to, but I asked for a rain check i order to get my divorce final and everything. I will never forget our last conversation. He asked if we could meet that weekend, just a dinner and if there was time a old movie or two. I laughed and said old movies, why old movies. Then I had to ask or my raincheck, he was disappointed but asked when it was suppose to be final. At that time I had no idea, and I still don't. But to make it shorter than I am, Thomas has always been there for me, at least since I met him. We talked several times on t e telephone, he was always so sweet. He was there for me when I needed a friend and I was there for him. He will always hold a piece of my heart. He was a good, good, person....I will always miss you Thomas. Save me a place in heaven.

sigh..it's taken me a while to write this..for that I am sorry. I first met Tom in Cserve thru TheDreamer back in hmmmm..I believe it was '95'. I moved to Ohio in '96' following that move with a reunion in '97' where I met Tom for the first time IRL. I knew then he would be one of the best friends I would have..and he was. Tom and his wife then met with my husband and me several times after that. Dinners at my house..repairing my computer or just horsing around on it. Tom was great for making sure I had all the latest and fastest things on it. LOL..several times he even too it out of his own pocket he was so insistent..with me paying him a few days later. My husband and I drove down there last year during the summer to pick up the computer I am now using from Tom. He insisted mine was an old dinosour..and sold me this one. I have to agree..once I got this things moved much faster. He always seemed to know ust what I needed and when..and was always there to fix it for me. That was the last time I saw Tom IRL..sigh. We spent a wonderful weekend together and had plans to meet up again last month. Sadly..that never happened. The best thing I can say about Tom is that everyone was his equal..his friend. He didn't have a mean bone in his body. He went out of his way to take care of his friends and their needs. I will always miss him. I've lost something very special in my life. in loosing Tom. I love you Tommikins

Dauntless, you were one of the first people I met on chat. Though I didn't know you long, I enjoyed chatting with you. I particularly enjoyed talking to you about Columbus and the surrounding area of Ohio. I wish we had gotten to know each other better. A yone whose lives you have touched have lost a friend.

Dear Tom, You will always be a special person in my life. You were there for me when I had surgery and kept me from being scared. I always enjoyed talking to you while you were riding down the rode.. it meant so much to me. And even though we had some difficult imes, our friendship held out and we did not part as enemies but as friends. I will always love you Tom in a very special way. Your friend forever, Ellen

I can't believe you are gone my friend. I was thinking about you and then I got the page in memory of you. (Thanks Beth)We had a ton of laughs and alot of late night chats. You were there to lend a shoulder and some quick wit to cheer. I will always be gr teful for these times we shared my dearly departed friend. May you find peace, comfort and lots of laughter on the other side my friend, as you have given those of us here in this life the same. (((((((TOM)))))) I will miss you dearly my friend.

I didn't know Daunt as well as most, I wish now that I had taken the opportunity to do so. The 'geek' chat sessions we had, although few, were very enjoyable and we shared a love of flight sims. His "speed of light" wit and his uniqueness was a gift to us all, thank you Tom.

What an honor it was to know Tom. I'll never forget the first time we as a group met at the Columbus airport and Tom was late. We all knew it was him the minute we spotted him. Tom had such a gentle way about him, and really cared for those he called f iend. He played a beautiful guitar, and even though I had to be there to "hold his hand" when he got his ear pierced, he held up well. I will miss his quick wit, his constant encouragement, and his gentle nature. Although we all are sad that Tom is no onger here with us on earth, Heaven is a greater place having him there. He truly blessed my life and I will always be proud to have called him my friend. He'll be missed always
