[…] There will be a viewing this Wednesday evening with Funeral services on Thursday (Aug 21) Thom has posted details on his blog here.  I hope the Utah geek community can help support the Gregory family the way that it has my family.  […]

Tom, we’ve never met, but my family was also affected by brain cancer. Your family is in my prayers.

My prayers are with your family. I am so sorry for your loss.

What a beautiful boy Tom, please accept my sincere condolences.

Tom, I am so sorry for your loss. My heart breaks seeing such a beautiful child taken so young. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Nothing I say can help ease the pain, but I know our prayers will help. May the Lord bless you and your family as you endure one of life’s most difficult trials. As a father of a 4-year-old I can’t begin to comprehend what you must be going through. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I do not know you (I found your link through an auction site for Nie Nie), but as I read your last entry I just cried. Your sweet little Tobin was just 6 days older than my son. My heart just broke as I read about his brave battle with cancer and recent passing. I am sitting here overwhelmed with emotion. Your family will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Hi, Tom & family.

Wow. I’m so sorry for your loss. Our daughter was recently in PCH as well, and although everything turned out OK, I thought my world would end if something happened to her. I can’t imagine what you and your family are going through, but know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. I’m just sorry that I didn’t hear about it sooner, or I would have come to the funeral.

God Bless.

All I can do is cry when I read this and say a prayer for you now. I pray that our Lord would comfort and keep you and your family always. That He would cradle your hearts gingerly as you grieve.

I am truly sorry any parent should experience what you are. I am just so so sorry.
