Tom's Story

Well I am now single after 25 years of marriage and ready to start the next chapter of my life. I have a 25 year old daughter Ashley and she lives in South Africa with her boyfriend (Matthew). I sure miss seeing her. I tore down my Holly Glen house and built a new home figuring this would be a good way to move on.

I always imagined it would have been a lot of fun... Perhaps not, just like to think so.. I hope everyone is healthy, happy and safe!
