As always, well done guys. A fitting tribute to a great reporter and an even greater man. Tom was always a pleasure to work with when he came to cover games at Canisius, especially making the trip to the Demske to cover the Griffs in lacrosse. He will surely be missed. My prayers are with his family and all of you back in Buffalo as well.

Well-put. Not to offend anyone, but the Borelli family is in my thoughts and prayers, and the Buffalo News guys as well. Talking to one of them yesterday, this has already been an incredibly rough patch, and things seemed to be looking up.

Tom was a true professional and an outstanding human being. I met him when I was covering the Bandits for the Tonawanda News and the Niagara Gazette. I appreciated his friendship and his guidance.

My hearts go out to his family.

As someone who has also banged his head on those girders at All-High Stadium, I sincerely hope the Bffalo Education Department does soemthing to rectify the situation before we have another needless tragedy.
