ColTom-Wise Man  / Richman (Chat Friend )
For over two years I had the pleasure to read the thoughts of one of the wisest men in my life. He had the most realistic perpective regarding life and his little bits of wisdom that he shared with so many people in his life and made them a little better. He never spoke ill of anyione and when he paid someone a compliment it was always unique and sincere. I never forget him. Close

To Honor Famine and bless his family across the land  / George ALdridge (mt3 chatted with him )
At 17:00 hours our honor guard will fire a salute to this great man.  Unlike the typical firing squad we shoot one round at a time to allow the echo to roll through the mountains.  Our deepest sympathy to all those who knew the man we honor today. Close

Where is FAMINE when we need him?  / Bigbob (Friend)
ColTom my friend, I will remember you always. R.I.P. forever, my friend, with no more problems. I will miss our talks, all hours of the night when sleep would evade us. You always seemed to have the right answers, no matter what the question was. I can't believe how much we all miss you already.
We all knew that when we needed him "FAMINE" would pop up and take care of everything.
May God Bless  and keep you forever.

To my best friend Tom  / Angelique Leclair (Friend)
You have been my best online friend for many many years. I trusted you like I never trusted anyone. You were always there when I needed to talk and needed a friendly ear. You have given me the best advice and always looked after me. I am honored that I had the opportunity to meet you a couple times and that you even were there long enough to see me finally live wonderful times in my life with Celt and our daughter.
I miss you so much already, you will never be forgotten!
Love forever!

A true southern gent  / Reyna (CamGirl)
Coltom was a role model for all young men. He believed in treating a lady with respect even if she was on the other end of the internet and not in the same room with you. In today's society where everyone and everything are disposable, many young men should take a page from his book and learn to appreciate the taste of a fine whiskey, a room full of friends, good music and the stories and struggles that accompany it, and the love of one (or several lol) good women. In a time when every young man demands respect for himself, Coltom tried to teach the young ones to offer respect to garner their own. He will be missed. Everytime I hear Etta James or Nina Simone I will think of him and the many wonderful conversations we had. Rest in peace Coltom. Close

An example for us all  / Guido
The writer Ursula K. Leguin summed it up best when she wrote, "For a word to be spoken, there must be silence.  Before, and after."  The silence following CT's passing brings great regret.  But the way he lived his life is a great example for us all.  He enjoyed all it had to offer.  And he treated others with kindness and respect.  CT was a true gentleman who will not be forgotten.
