Hey all....Karen Geiger (Susan Kaminsky's sister)...first thing I want to thank Susan for creating this blog. I think it is a great idea for people to talk about their "Tomisms" and the affect he had on each and every one of us...

Like Missy said, it is hard to place the first time I met Tom....it seems as though he has always been a part of the family. However one of my favorite memories involves both Tom and Casey and when they took time out of their busy schedules to fly to Myrtle Beach to help us celebrate Susan's 40th birthday....after encountering a few flight delays, they arrived in time to go to the fishing tournament weigh in and they had the time of their lives....they had heard so much about the weigh-in's and seen them by webcast, but it is totally different when you can experience it first hand....Susan was extremely surprised to have her "second family" there to cheer her on....Later that night it was the actual surprise party with the Zentricksters playing and the highlight was watching and seeing Casey singing "Me and Bobby McGee". Tom and Casey hung with everybody that night until early into the morning and then boarded a plane back to New York the next morning. It was a whirlwind trip, but one of the best times we all had together....

Tom, we will remember you forever and know that you will be looking out for all of us in your special way.

Grins and giggles....kg
