RIP Tommy
(Mods you can move this if you want but i figured i'd post this in memorium to the forum which he was most active in)

I dont know if many if you fellow TL owners knew him personally or as a member on this site, but Tommy Nguyen, a 21 year old from Ballwin, MO passed away this past week due to what appears to have been (from what I can gather) a long fought illness. I dont remember what his user ID was on here because I was only friends through facebook with him but maybe some of you might know what it was. This thread is just to pay him respect so if you knew him please comment.

RIP Tommy.
