What an experience to have someone like that in your life, especially during adolescence.

Imagine having, in your confused adolescence, the friendship of an older, avuncular man who is into computers, a world-traveling photographer who would occasionally head out to, like, videotape the Dalai Lama for a few weeks, then come back and listen to every word you said while you sat on his porch. A generous, kind person who spoke openly about love and faith and treated people with respect.

What an experience to have someone like that in your life, especially during adolescence. Wonderful. He would meet the Dalai Lama and come sit with you and listen to your every word. Fantastic.
I am sorry Tom has left you. Seems he left you with beautiful memories and the Teddy Bear to continue to listen and guide you in his absence.
