I’m very sorry to hear of Tom’s passing. Our condolences to Dave & Lori and all of the Freeburg’s.
Tom was a great friend and classmate during our school days in Walnut Grove. I am saddened to learn of his passing, but it has given me pause to remember some of the great times we spent together.
My deepest condolences to all of the Freeburgs. Tom and I had a lot of good times in high school from playing sports together to weekends at Valhalla and everything in between. Once again, you all are in my thoughts and prayers during this time of sorrow and grief.
Burl Maker
May the family of Tom find comfort in knowing that one day “all” now resting in the grave will be raised to life on a peaceful new earth. (John 5:28, 29; Psalm 37:11, 29) And then, “the last enemy, death, is to be brought to nothing.” (1 Corinthians 15:26) I hope you all take care and please accept my sincerest condolences. (www.jw.org)
