My cousin Tom and I enjoyed some of the same interests growing up. We both played little league baseball and practiced in a cow pasture but we only had one old baseball and had to make do with that. Eventually we both had Corvairs. Tom’s was a nice red one. He was patient and kind to let me me drive it once. Thank you Tom and I will miss you!

Tommy was my next-door neighbor when we all lived in Washington DC in the 40s and early 50s. He was the younger brother of my best friend, George. Though he was a couple of years younger than us, he was the best younger brother I ever had. After all these years, I just remember what a great young man he was and an excellent playmate. God Speed Thomas Alvin Pierce!
