“He diligently fulfilled his charge of keeping us (plus our residents and visitors) updated with any changes in our public transport.”
He added: “Tom also quietly supported other elements of our community in practical ways such as organising the delivery of the Remembrance Day poppy wreaths.
“Our sincere condolences to his widow Pauline.”
