HERMITAGE, AR Monday, January 25, 2010 Sharon, Bobby and Ms. Martha:So sorry to hear of your great loss. Mr. Thomas Gene was was one of the hardest working man I have ever known. He always had a twinkle in his eye and a wonderful sense of humor and would lend you the shirt off his back if you needed it. There aren't many men left like that anymore. I have been truly been blessed to know your entire family. I have many lovely and precious memories of staying at your, BItty Momaw & Pawpaw, Big Momaw & Pawpaw's houses.
When you've lost someone you dearly love
it's hard to find the sun.
Shadows fill the land with gloom and cover everyone.
But memories live on and on
safe from death's cold touch;
In memories we find those still, we love and miss so much.
Memories can bring a smile even on the saddest day.
May God hold you close to his heart in the coming days.

Star City, AR Monday, January 25, 2010 Thomas Gene, was a special man with a heart of love for all he knew. He was always there for Darian at the early age of fourteen when his dad died. He gave him lots of his time by meeting at the creek to fish or just stop by to talk and check the pine tree's. He gave him advice to last a life-time. Our family had a lot of respect and will be ever grateful for him being a part of our life. We share in your loss. God bless each of you!Harry L. Densmore III
