(Tom was a counselor at the Lena Pope Children’s Home when Chandler was a resident there.  Years later, Chandler and Tom remain friends, and Chandler had the pleasure of watching the impact Tom had on another young man when he and Tom were visiting a prison and a young man from Azleway embraced him and started crying, thanking him for his care and concern so many years ago.  All of Tom’s education and life experience have prepared him to coach men to become all that God wants them to be.)
