Rest in Peace - my dear friend Tom Simpson

I will Miss Tom very much

I agree. I read it this morning and was in shock. Tom was a great guy we used to enjoy some One Pocket. May you rest in peace Tom. My condolences to Candice and the family. Tom will be missed.
 
Sorry for your loss, Freddie. May he RIP. My sincere condolences to Tom's family and friends.
 
Sad news. I remember Tom from the old RSB days and met him when he came to Toronto. A loss for the game.
 
That is big news. Sorry to hear it.

I never met him, but he was held in the highest regard in the pool world, for sure.
 
Terrible news. Tom made a difference, and was liked and respected
by thousands of pool community friends.
I will keep Tom's friends and loved ones in my thoughts and prayers.

RIP Tom.

Hard news. Tom did a lot for the pool community. He was, and will continue to be, well thought of.
 
So sorry to hear this news. Tom was a real plus for our sport. One of the good guys, very supportive of everyone else's endeavors.
 
Wow, that's horrible and surprising news. Tom and I used to meet up for some games when he'd make it to Louisville. What a nice guy.

It may not have been obvious from the post, but I am extremely saddened to hear of the passing my dear friend Tom Simpson - the man in black.

I'm a bit numb at this. I've met up with Tom all across the country, and he inspired me to do a few things in pool that I may not have done otherwise.

Rest in peace,


Freddie

Very sad news. I last saw Tom and his wife at the 2016 Super Billiard Expo. I first heard about him through the BCA instructor program. He was behind the Elephant Ball training balls and pool sets. He helped a lot of people play better pool.
 
Rest in peace, Tom

I was so shocked and saddened to learn of Tom's passing. Tom had a rare and profound effect on our lives, and leaves a rich legacy that will continue to guide us through the years to come. My deepest condolences to Candace and the family. You are in our hearts and prayers.

That's a shame. I just sawTom in Chicago a few months ago. He had a big impact in the pool world with his various inventions and his instructional clinics.

RIP Tom
 
Sorry to hear this. I am also sorry I never took lessons from him. I do have a set of the elephant training cue ball and object balls and I use them all the time. Rest in peace Tom.
 
Ilm so shocked to learn of Tom's passing. I took lessons from him at his billiards university, and it was an eye opening experience. I just emailed him a month or so ago . My deepest condolences to Candace and the family. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
