The ideal of integrity acquires its meaning from the way a man like Tom leads his life. It is very sad when one such as he departs. I fondly remember the long distant Sundays at St Roch's counting the collection money with Tom and the others on our small roster. Not a glamorous job, but with Tom, always humourous. An iconic figure in the history of Xavier. With recent losses of my own this year, my condolence to all his family. Simon Phipps.
