    Tommy , Polly, Johnny and me used to have so much fun water skiing on the weekend at the lake in Conway. From the early morning till the sun was going down. Seemed like every weekend. Soo many memories. Loved Tommy, he was the big brother and Johnny loved him and looked up,to him. He will be missed. I loved him like he was my brother.
