Remembering Tom McAdam: A Life Well Lived
Losing someone we love is never easy. Today, I want to take a moment to remember my dear friend, Tom who passed away 3 years ago on this date. This post is not just about grief, but also about celebrating the incredible person Tom was and the impact he had on those around him. Tom was more than just a friend, he was family. He called me his little wolf or little sister regularly. From the moment we first spoke, we connected. We laughed til our bellies hurt and enjoyed talking to each other multiple times a day.
There are so many memories that come to mind when I think about Tom. From our TikTok duets, WhatsApp voice note marathons and video calls that sometimes lasted hours. But it isn't just my life that Tom improved. He impacted a number of people, from those he met in his hometown of Liverpool to people online and those he worked with, he lit up a room with his infectious laugh and undeniable vibrant personality (and his butt shaking on the dance floor or anywhere for that matter).
Losing him has left a hole in my heart, but I take comfort in knowing that his spirit lives on in the lives he touched. I will honour his memory by continuing to play Britney Spears loudly and dancing like nobody is watching.
Final Thoughts
To those reading this who knew Tom, let's hold onto the good times and keep their legacy alive. And to Tom, if you're reading this - thank you for being part of my life. I will miss you and love you always. Love your little wolf 🐺
