I just got an email from Tom Reed's wife saying he passed away the other day.

https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/hartfordcourant/obituary.aspx?n=thomas-m-reed&pid=197101696&fhid=4089

Tom's screen name was Giantfan67 and he was one of our all-time longest posters. I had the wonderful privilege of knowing Tom for so many years. I spoke to him last month and knew he wasn't doing well, but this comes as a complete shock.

Many of us, who attended our get together knew and met Tom.

My dearest condolences to his wife and family.

Tom, God speed.  and RIP

So sorry to hear this. Tom lived very close to me. We had lunch many times over the years.

Rest In Peace my friend.

Oh, Lenny!  Tom was a GREAT guy.  I particularly remember him from out get together up in CT.  My prayers go for him and to his family.  RIP, Tom!

Whatever works best Ed.

I know Tom didn't travel much the past few years, but I still remember when we used to meet in Fishkill to watch a game, in that Packers Bar, and Tom would make that trip, with someone, or on his own. (I think he used to come down with Spider, if memory serves). Win or lose, those WERE the good times for all.
I wonder if Spider (John Flagg) knows of Tom

Go easy Bro, you will be missed...

I never met Tom, I only wish I had. It is because of guys like him who are so well thought of and liked by so many folks here who I admire and respect that I feel a sense of loss. May your fond memories soften the grief.
