      I remember meeting Tommy by himself years before he had passed coming out of the Sunset Station Casino Sports Book in Vegas. We talked briefly outside (good brotha/not stuck up). I also remember when Tommy first started out with Martin on stage in West L.A. doing plays back in 1988.

    Thanks for sharing that with us. Every person and character on the Martin show was just finominal. Tommy was great in other things as well. In Selma, Alabama when the annual bridge crossing jubille got started, he was one of the first famous people to come there for that. Great entertainer and great person. You are missed my brother!
