Tombol

I wish I could say that I had the opportunity to meet Tombol. From everything I have been told, he was a true pleasure to be around. My friend Lana has shared with me so much about him, which I am sure is just the iceberg of how much he had to offer. It is funny because every time Lana recalls an anecdote that involves Tombol her face lights up and she cannot help but smile. This speaks volumes about his personality. He enhanced her life with his presence and I am thankful for that.

To Tombol's friends and family, I wish I knew the right thing to say. I am not even sure that there is a "right" thing to say in situations like these. What happened is horrific and I am so sorry for you all. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.
