Tommy was a well liked person amongst his online friends on paltalk. His vast musical knowledge never ceased to amaze along with his love for his favourite group the temptations. He will be missed by all those who knew him. R.I.P Tommy xx
People come into our lives
To serve some purpose or reason
Then they are gone like a puff of wind
Receding like the ending season.

Rinky Dink My Lifelong Friend
I've known Rinky Dink since 1965. I was 12 years old. He was deejaying all over Beaver County and I was just starting playing records at the Beaver High School Canteen dances for $5.00 a night. I was one of his roadies and we became very good friends. On Friday nights we would sit in his attic in Rochester and actually broadcast over the AM band. We would get out about 5 miles and were always being tracked by the FCC. Never got busted. As he got older he started radio in Beaver Falls and I was becoming a great DJ in my own right playing dances all over the Valley and filling in for him when he asked. I learned so much from him. I ended up going to Vietnam and started a carreer in electronics while continuing to deejay all over the country. Tom and I kept in touch over the years.I did some radio in Chicago, Milwaukee and finally in Stockton, CA. I started my own Company called Big Wally Productions and am still playing music to this day under the name of Big Wally DJ. I have literally played music all over the country taking the Pennsylvania style wherever I have been. This could not have been possible had I not met Tom. He was my mentor and I loved him like a brother. I have had so many experiences because of knowing him that I could never repay that. As his protege I will continue to play the oldies, Doo Wop, Funk and R&B until I perish. I can think of no greater gift than to honor him with the music he so dearly loved and tutored me on how to deliver it. Goodbye Rinky Dink and don't do to many gigs in heaven,

Tommy my Pittsburgh Buddy
He was the first person that I met I met on PalTalk that I had a Pittsburgh connection with...a true gentlemen. Music made his soul shine. Spent many Sunday evenings listing to him on the radio spinning oldies and occasionaly hearing him on the radio in the afternoon on a drive home from work. I used to think to myself...hey that's my buddy Tommy. I met him one time at a car cruise and shared a great hug with him. I hope that the heavens are playing some Temps, Motown and oldies up there for him...and a little bit of Dominick the Italian Christmas Donkey...it was because of him that I got to know and make that song famous in some Pal Chat Rooms. He hated that song. I'm sure he would be giggling if he read that now. Tommy, you always put a smile on my face. You were one cool dude that I'm glad I found out in the internet world. All of Pittsburgh will miss you as well as all your friends here on Pal. Farewell and rest in peace. ifeelforyou36 a/k/a Feely
