I was Tom oldest customer and I just found out about his passing. My heart is broken for his children and family.i met Tom in 1989 with my 944 and he was the only person who worked on my car. I love you so must but now your fight is over and your in the arms of God. Job well done my friend and I will see you again in Heaven, Amen.
My condolences to the Charlesworth family for the loss of a true gentleman. I only recently got to know Tom in this last year and took my Cayman and my 944 in seemingly often for minor things or optional upgrades. My wife noticed i was going to the shop to drop a car off every other week at times and asked why i was having so many problems with my cars…. i told her i loved going there to talk to Tom and the crew as they became instant friends. I really was going there to hang with the fellas like a break from my busy work day. Tom was full of trivial pieces of info especially on my 944 and he really made me feel like i found the “944 whisperer” and he had this passion and stories to back up his facts about the cars and he was just such a wonderful and personable and caring and true friend and i am so sad that he is gone and i immensely will miss finding any reason possible to go take a car in just to getaway and chat with Tom.
PS Tom, my 944 still smells like exhaust in the cabin so if you can still maybe come to me in a dream with any other ideas of what i can do to fix it so i don’t stink like gas when i get to my destination I’d appreciate that!
Always will cherish my memories of you!
Until we meet again !

TC,
What a lot of laughs and club racing fun we had going back to 1992! I can remember more than one discussion on pit road that got longer and longer, the more I tried to make my point!! Glad I got to visit in Tulsa and at all of those races. See you on the grid or tech inspection.

Tom, thank you for sharing PCA CLub Racing with me and bringing a human side to Tech and Rules.
Your smile and laugh would bring down the house. my best memories of Club Racing was working races with you and relaxing at the end of the day. you were as positive a person as I know and I like saying I knew you and were friends. Good bye my friend, until the next one!
