A master musician, brilliant composer, ace producer and dear friend. Tom was always a gentleman. We worked together on thousands of recordings. I learned much from him. I miss him.
Jackie, Our thoughts and prayers are with you. One of the supreme joys I have had in my career was the thrill of being in a jingle session with Tom and watching him, and the great TM singers spin their magic. What an experience.
It's just so hard to express our sadness about the loss of our dear friend Tom. Jackie, our hearts and prayers are with you. Love, Jody, Dan, Hunter and Drew
Having the chance to work with Tom was one of the greatest honors in my radio career. To this day, I cherish the pictures and memories from the many sessions we did together. The letter he once wrote me still sits on my desk. Tom Merriman…the GREATEST jingle man ever. His legacy will live on forever in the words and melodies that make radio all over the world sound better. Rest in peace, Tom.
My condolences to the Merriman family. I met Tom when I was a receptionist for TM Communication and he was one of the nicest and talented people that I have ever met. He will be truly missed! Denise Moffitt CorporateMagic
I am so sorry to hear of this. To me, Tom was truly a great person.
Tom's abilities were among the very best in the music industry, inspiring and driving the original TM team to stretch personal disciplines to very high performance levels. I thank God for having the pleasure of working with Tom for over a decade in that arena and like so many others our family benefits today from it. Thank you Tom, Chuck
