    Annie is a dear friend of mine, and growing up Mr. Tommy and Ms Jean welcomed me in to their home and always showed so much kindness to me. My heart goes out to you guys. He was such a great man and I feel lucky to have known him.

    My family lived a few houses down from the Lancasters growing up. Tommy would always meet me with a big smile. He was always funny and welcoming to all of the kids that made their home, our 2nd home. He treated us all treated like we were another one of his. He will be greatly missed. 💕

    Tommy, known affectionately as "T" and I met over 30 years ago during a move for Big Annie. We talked Braves' baseball and golf and instantly formed a lifelong friendship. His impact on my life was immeasurable. He always treated people with kindness and was truly was a caring soul. Words cannot begin to describe how much he will be missed by me and his weekend golfing buddies. He was such a big part of our lives. We will always cherish our time with T. RIP my friend...
