I remember Tommy as a joyful guy always enjoying everything he did.  He made my transition to S.A. in 7th grade easier and he made my high school years more enjoyable.  With his personality I could see him joining the A.F. to be a pilot.  I'm sorry he passed in such a tragedy at a time that I was contemplating coming home and beginning my life as a civilian.

James, thanks for the correction. It was so long ago, I had it in my mind that it was For Sam. Also, when Tommy died we were told he was the pilot instructor. Thanks so much for setting things straight!!

Hop asked where Tommy died. It's been so kind I honestly don't remember, but he's buried at Fort Sam Houston.

Hinda, thank you so much for this story about your friendship with Tommy during our school days and the tragic crash that took his life years ago.

Tommy and I were very good friends. His dad and my mom were buyers for many, many years at Frost Bros. Tommy and I would study and do homework together in the telephone operators switchboard room, as we waited to go home with our parents. Unfortunately, Tommy joined the Air Force after college and became a pilot. He ultimately became a flight instructor and he and his student died tragically in an airplane crash just weeks before his scheduled marriage. My mom and I were at the military funeral and missing man flyover to honor Tommy. I have missed him a lot since then and hechad always remained in my memories. Continue to rest in peace, Thomas Arthur Robson. You are missed.
