To my cousin Tommy - you showed us through courage, dignity, determination, and incredible strength of character, just how special a person you were. Combined with the unwavering support and love from your family and friends, you overcame and rose above circumstances that would have left many of us devastated and bitter. You just reset your compass to your new reality and chose to live your life to its fullest, despite it all. And when your physical body told you it was time, with your family by your side, you faced that with that same quiet dignity and strength that carried you through these last 35 years. You were, and will continue to be a constant inspiration in my life. Debbie, Glendon & Shelley, Jeff & Brenda, Daniel, Michele & Alyssa –my heart and love are with all of you right now. A light that burned so bright lives on, and I would like to think right now that Tommy's spirit, free as a bird, is sitting at the table with Dad and Uncle Maurice teaching them a thing or two about playing 45's, with slightly raised eyebrows and that impish half grin on his face.

Morris and I were deeply saddened to hear of Tommy's passing and send our love and condolences to Debbie and the family. He was always a hero to us and it was like being with a rock star when chatting with him in his van at the Bridgewater Exhibition. He always had a smile and a wry comment.
Mo's Mom, Madeline, always had a special place in her heart for Tommy (don't tell any of the other nieces and nephews) and was very insistent that he had to be one of her pallbears at her own funeral and if anyone reading this knew Madeline Reeves of the Forties, they will also know that she was very particular about every detail of any event from a Garden Party to one more ceremonial. Mo, on the other hand, joined Tommy in his enjoyment of Heavy Metal- perhaps a guilty pleasure.
Tommy will be deeply missed by so many that had the priviledge to know him.
Love,
Anne (Pollett) and Morris (Walker)

I was one of Tom's nurses at the Nova Scotia Rehab. We spent lots of hours doing very hard work, we had lots of laughs, and many times we cried together. He loved Debbie and his family dearly.
He went downtown with a group of us one Friday night. We had a blast!!! He was beautiful man with a beautiful soul. He taught all of us more than he would ever know.
Debbie and family, I send you my love and prayers. May you find some peace and comfort during this difficult time.
Lovingly,
Debbie Mac Lean

It has been a pleasure having Tommy accompany me at the Christmas Tree history display at the annual New Ross Christmas Festival. So many visitors were so happy to see him there and he was always in his glory answering their tree questions. I've always appreciated the advice he has given me over the years about growing trees and I valued his assistance when we did a written history of the tree industry in New Ross. He always seemed to be keeping an eye on my tree shearing progress and was quick to let me know if I missed any on the side of Porcupine Hill or other places he could see from the highway. I could feel a strong sense of his presence the last few days as I've been working in my tree lot- I hope I didn't take too many breaks Tommy!

Debbie, I am sorry for your loss. You & Tom had such a great love for each other.
Tom was such a great person and lived a fulfilled life, not the original one he planed, but the one God gave him. I was so lucky to have him as a friend. I've been so proud of all the accomplishments he has overcome & lived his life to the fullest of his given abilities.
He is a proud poster man for the NS. Rehabilitation Centre.
At our last Rehab gathering we had just been talking about Tom, his life & how he touched so many of his nurses.
From his obituary I take it that he had been sick for the past month, & that would have not mad him happy. He was happiest in his made home, greenhouse & trees.
I hope their is forest up there for you Tom.
My thoughts & prayers are with you Debbie, The Reeves family & all his at home workers.

Debbie,, Glendon, Jeff and Families.
Tommy was a mainstay of the Forties and New Ross area. My Mom and Dad, Lyda and Will, always talked about Tommy and told me how he was doing.
Yes Bridgewater Exhibition was not complete without Tommy in his blue van. He was known far and wide and loved and admired by many.
He fought so many battles but there was always going to be one he couldn't win.
I cannot imaging the emptiness you will feel as you face the days and years ahead. My thoughts are with you. You can be comforted knowing that the two of you accomplished so much and he has passed his strength on to you.
Sincerely, Judy
Oakville, Ontario

Words can't express the feelings if you loose someone. And if the one you loose is someone like Thommy it's even harder, because he was a special friend in every way. We will miss his kindness and patience teaching Frank 45's. His sense of humor and never ending inspirational way of facing life. Thomas will always be in the thoughts of the people who knew him and be missed dearly.

I will miss our van visits to which he always had a big smile for me. He inspired me to not complain about life's trivial matters because if Tommy could do what he did, I should not complain. You are both my heroes. With love and caring always, Michele

Debbie & the Reeves family,
I have many happy memories of our school days at New Ross Consolidated School especially in Mrs Rex’s homeroom class. Tommy & Terry Burgoyne were always up to some kind of mischief in that back corner. Tommy would willingly tutor those of us that struggled with the isosceles triangle or some such beast. In reading his obituary it sounds as if he guided the last step of his life’s journey with the same determination & dignity that directed him following his accident. We can only hope to live our lives to the fullest, be contributing community members and continue to reach for our dreams like Tommy did, even when the odds are stacked against us. Debbie your devotion to Tommy epitomizes true love & takes ‘till death do us part’ to an entirely different level. He will forever be part of my fondest memories. Deepest sympathy to you all.
