Tom lived in a condo in Sandiego, but would come to La Manzanilla and stay in his VW camper bus. He donated some of his photos for the auction and a three night stay at his condo. Tom was killed in a car accident on 8/25/14 coming back from Big Surprise about 8:30 in the evening. That is a very curvy road. He lost control and hit a tree. He was a retired science teacher and taught in the Davis School District.
He was 66 years old, wintered in the Manzanillo area and recently moved to Martinez, CA. I am sure there are people here here,who remember him and his lovely scenic photos.

I am very sorry to hear of this. Tom was a guest at our cabana two years ago. He was a very sweet and gentle person of generous nature. I will cherish the photos he took here. My condolences to his family.
