This is a copy paste from Tom's wife Kristal on yellowbullet:

Today Tommy ended his almost decade long battle with ALS today...
This may come as a surprise as we have still been actively participating in threads and the day to day operations of the RRA. This is how he wanted it...he didn't not want anyone making a big fuss over something that could not be changed, he was all about living life not focusing on death. He made me laugh because he would be having a really hard time one minute and the next he would ask me to see what was going on in the bullet. He said it was his outlet, and it was alot more fun to work on RRA stuff than dwell on his ALS. Even Friday night he was giving me a checklist things that need to be done on his Camaro rebuild for the 10.50 class...lol
The RENEGADE RACING ASSOCIATION has been such a gift to him over the past two years, he gave it 110% and it gave him an outlet for his love of racing
He loved all of you guys in the RRA very much...(Gerry he even had a soft spot for you believe it or not...lol) Thank you for your participation in the series and most of all for your friendship.
If heaven has a dragstrip I'm sure he's already there...
