John Panzica wrote a sympathy message

“Tom was a great man and I’ll never forget him. So sorry to hear about his passing. I’ve known Tom for almost 40 years through the medical industry. We were both in sales and I had the honor of meeting Tom in the late 80’s. We met and talked regularly, he was a mentor, friend and before he retired from 3M I had the privilege of working directly with him. My sincere thoughts and prayers are with Sandy and his whole family. Peace and love, John Panzica.”
