Condolences to the Family

Randy, I am so sorry I only recently heard if TJ’s passing.  You both were highly respected by me and I viewed you both with excitement at the potential friendship we could forge despite being part of the Prokop clan to which I am grateful I am no longer part of being the EX of Eric.  You both were treated so poorly and unustifiably so by JT’s part of the family, but not by me.  I couldn’t let this go unrecognized as not even a single Prokop offered condolences to a member of their family who I know is amazing.  And you as well.  For our brief encounters I was mesmerized by your knowledge of owning a historical home and knowing how to decorate it.  So smart and so sweet the both of you were/are.  I’m sorry so many years have passed and we never got to expand upon our friendship but I thought of you both often and from what I gather you both shared an amazing life together.  I hope for you that you are able to keep all the amazing memories with you yet still move on.  TJ was lucky to have you and vice versa.  If you ever want to catch up, 845-545-5512 – Lisa.

I only had the opportunity to meet Tom in his final days as his hopsice nurse. Randy did an amazing job caring for him until the end. His love and devotion was unmeasurable. I enjoyed hearing their love story! RIP Tom!

Tom’s humor was beyond dry and I always appreciated that, he was funny as all get out!  He loved his husband Randy dearly and I will miss him.
