very cool

Those are some of Tom's relatives in the picture with me. From left to right: his cousin Renee, his aunt Pat, Dolores? (I think), and his sister Lisa.

Nice to see Duncan still suiting!

That isn't Tom in the suit, it was yours truly. That morning Tom woke up not feeling good at all, but he still wanted to try to suit at the event. He put on the "Evil Duncan" suit with the horns removed and Duncan's name tag (he did that the last few years). I was his handler as usual. He walked around for about an hour but he could not continue. I took him back home where he promptly went back to bed. I knew that one of us had to be there to finish the other four hours of the event, but the suit he wore was literally drenched in sweat. My only choice was to put on the original suit. I drove back to the event and finished the time with no problems despite temperatures in the eighties with high humidity. That character is still well loved by the kids and people that go to the festival every year.

Wow Cool photo tack.

Thanks! It was just sad that Tom couldn't finish the show himself. We didn't go to the recent one in October because it was raining that day. Tom was awarded a Dream Maker award this year and was featured in suit on BRCTV13 during the annual Dream Come True telethon.
