Tommy......we meet in 2003 when we use to attend cruise nights at the Sonic. You had your MOPAR and my hubby had his 68 roadrunner. We had a lot of fun and laughs when we would all hang out there. (even though I had a classic "chevy" camaro) Thurman and I moved away in 2004, but we would always see you at the Mopar Mini Nats in Garland. Then came facebook. We became "friends" and could stay in touch. I can't tell you how many times you made me LAUGH with your "Drinking Coffee with Tommy Loyd" show.
Since my hubby and I are now "Jeep Fanatics" (hey..still MOPAR), we were glad to see that you now were the owner of a wicked XJ. We talked about us all getting together for Jeep rides. We were glad to know you, and call you our friend. Gone way too soon.
Our thoughts and prayers will continue to be with Tracey and the rest of your family.
Until we meet again.....
I remember my uncle as funny and light-hearted. When we spoke on the phone he would always pretend to be someone different and try to make me laugh. I always enjoyed him sharing his interests or artwork with me. I will remember him working on cars in the garage or being creative in his man cave. He left me with only fond memories and he will be missed.
My condolences to you and your family.
I was so saddened to hear Tommy had passed away. I've known him since McLaughlin Elementary, we lived in the same neighborhood growing up and our brothers were friends. Everybody liked Tommy. I am so thankful we reconnected online in 2009 and I got to see how talented he still was. Tommy was one of a kind! A special person whose life was far too short. My heart goes out to his wife Tracey and the rest of his loved ones at this time of grief. Please accept my heartfelt condolences.

I too met Tommy in junior high. He would always making me laugh or scratch my head wondering how he came up with some of the stuff he would say. It was good catching up with him on Facebook after so many years. He still made me laugh with the “Coffee with Tommy” show. His passing has hit me kind of hard and I pray for his family and friends.
Tommy and I have long history from meeting each other in 7th grade to living together as roomates after school. He was a unique guy, very creative, quirky, and funny. Without going into detail, we had a ton of fun back in those days. Tommy's passing hit me like a ton of bricks and has had me walking around in disbelief. I feel so bad for his wife of 20 years and his two brothers Tim and Lonnie. The memories we created over the years will always be there. I pray for the comfort of the family and all those that loved him. May he rest in eternal peace.
