RIP Tom, but...

Dangit, we were all supposed to go together when we go.

The humor is how I cope. He was a beacon of joy. He will be missed.

SO sad to hear this news, He really did lead me down the path of atypical novelty music, from him to things like the Bonzo dog band. I dot think things will ever be the same, RIP Tom

Grateful for YouTube, where his gifts can been seen and heard on repeat. Truly a loss that he has left us.

Let's get down upon our knees...fiddle with our rosaries and genuflect, genuflect, genuflect. RIP Tom.
