Yes, when I checked this site a few days ago there was nothing on it about Tommy's passing. I was very disappointed, because he touched so may people over the several years that he was a blacksmith. He was a wonderful man. Great blacksmith, Great sense of humour, and always had a smile on his face. He will be truly missed...
