Tom was one of the first to welcome me to this group and he replied to almost every message posted. He freely shared his time and knowledge with all. He always had a great sense of humor. No doubt he will be rewarded for his many kind deeds. Tom, my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Subject: [CANSLIM] Tom Worley: Tragic Announcement

Fellow CANSLIM'rs,

With great sadness and regret I reluctantly announce the death of Tom Worley. He was apparently killed in a domestic dispute with his son over this past weekend. He was preceded in death by his sweetheart wife who passed away from cancer a few years ago.

I learned of this tragedy when Katherine Malm privately expressed concerns to me that she was unable to contact Tom. I called his office, and when I asked to speak to Tom, was informed of the tragedy. Tom's human resource officer sent me this announcement that was circulated at his office:

    Please be advised that there will be a Mass honoring Mr. Thomas Worley at
    Saint Mary's Cathedral on Thursday May 8th, at ten in the morning .
    Saint Mary's is located on the corner of N.W. 75th Street and N.W. 2nd
    Avenue. The best way to go is to get off on the N.W. 79th Street exit on
    I-9.

Katherine and I have not yet been able to find an online obituary or newspaper article. However, in memory of Tom, Katherine has found and compiled the following links:

Tom wrote this bio himself:

I have known Tom for the past decade, corresponding by private email regularly and often. I've also spoken with Tom on occasion by phone.

Tom was one of the first half-dozen people who signed up for our CANSLIM email community. Most likely Tom has been a member of our CANSLIM community longer than any other person. Right from the beginning of our CANSLIM community Tom exhibited his paternal instincts towards our membership. Through the years, Tom consistently reached out to every new participant. He would welcome them, and then generously and gently give of his time and talents. Tom was truly the father of our community.

In my personal interaction with Tom, I came to know Tom as a sensitive, gentle, and thoughtful soul.

Tom, I'll miss you! I hope you are now with your sweetheart wife in a joyful place where there are no more tears, sorrow, or pain.
