    I loaded the movie in my computer and watched many time. Every time I watched and cried with shane and alex... Shane is a brave man and shane let us know Tom and shared their memories. Shane, Tom is always with you...

    I live less than an hour from where Tom grew up. My sons are 29 and 30. I would have felt proud and fortunate to have had Tom as a son. I hope my 2 can be as happy as Tom seemed to be. What hateful, ignorant fools his parents were! My condolences to Shane at the horrible treatment you received after his passing. Tom is with you always. I hope you can find some happiness. Big hugs to you!

    Very sweet! I lost 2 loves in my life in the last 4 years. My Husband and my Mom. I know how it feels to loose someone. Keep spreading your message! You are a beautiful soul! Big Hugs Baby Boy!

    Can't even get through the first minute of this video without tearing up. Such a sad story about a beautiful sole. Wonder what his parents have to say now, what with the story , and posts and how much Shane loved and honored his memory. They should be thanking Shane for letting the world know how great a person Tom was.

    • @rollydoucet8909

      I'm sure Tom's parents (especially his dad) changed their outlook eventually.

    Shane, thank you for posting these photos. I hope that you heal soon. I know you miss Tom and you always will. You are blessed in that you found your true love early in life.

    Wow! The two of you made an amazing couple. Shane, I am soooo very sorry for the way Tom's family treated you at his death. I wish I could give you a big hug! He will ALWAYS love you, no matter what others may say, think or do.

  • @snowangelchild
    @snowangelchild 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    What a beautiful video for such an inspiration and beautiful person. I feel great sadness for his family to never know their son fully in life and now in death do not have that chance. Their ignorance is for them to answer and suffer for. May you swim in that big blue ocean and find peace. Tom gone but never forgotten. We are your voice in this fight now.

    Shane, I am so sorry for your loss. It is important for you to speak up and I am glad you are sharing your story. I am happy that your family accept and love you just the way you are. Hope you are doing a little better. You are here for a reason and posting these videos hopefully will get your story out to enough people to make a difference for someone who is struggling themselves.

    Tom obviously was an amazing person loved by many friends. I remember seeing him host the TV program Reel. He was very good. Although many of us weren't blessed enough to know Tom Bridegroom, through these TH-cam postings from you Shane we can all see how he loved you, his friends and family, loved to travel, made people happy and enjoyed life to the fullest. You and he may have only had 6 years together but must have shared more happiness in those 6 years than others do in a lifetime.

    Shane, I just wanted to write and let you know that I watched this, and your other videos of your love of your life. I have been in a committed relationship for over 20 years now, and could not imagine how difficult it would have been if I lost the love of my life. Just know that *time* is the great healer and I wish you all the best moving forward. Be strong, my friend, and thanks for sharing your story.

    All my support and thoughts for you Shane. Do not listen to the bigots and their pathetic hate, just remember ALWAYS that Tom loves you and that we are here to listen and support you. Hugs from Argentina, and please: stay strong and proud of who you are and what you are doing(that is an awesome labour).

  • @marcelofg1119

    What a happy life Tom had with his soul mate Shane who kept the very best of him. Tom's family were not able appreciate it. Their graves "protecting" him from Shane is useless. He will always belong spiritually to Shane no matter what. Tom is part of millions of families now. Tom we love you !!

    You are a TRUE awesome mother. Tom´s parents, however, are just monsters, they even lost their soul but didn´t seem to have learnt the karmatic lesson(to LOVE everyone). Stay strong Shane, we hold your back and send lovely thoughts for you and Tom´s soul!.

    To Shane,
    This is so heartbroke what's made me break down in tears, but I know times can be very very hard, but least Tom knew you loved him and that all what matters, Tom's parents should be ashamed of themselfs, Just stay strong for Tom sake, He will always watch over you from heaven day and night, thinking he has to stay strong... I'm so sorry for your loss Shane... anytime you need to talk I will be here, Steve x

    After seeing this and the other video's all I can say it makes me ever more grateful to live in Canada where the pain and anguish that Shane was subjected to would not have been possible in Canada's legal system. I pray for our brother's and sisters south of the border that equality comes to your nation soon.

  • @nightgathering

    Shane, I must say I am so sorry for your loss, I wish someday I could find a lifetime lover that is so lively loving and as special as Tom was to you, I am undoubtedly jealous of you for finding a diamond among all the coal in this world, it i such a shame he had to part so soon...x

  • @rippinsteo
    @rippinsteo 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Dear Shane, I cannot imagine the thoughts and feelings you may be experiencing on this day. But if I may be so bold, I send to you my love and my light. I believe you will get to see Tom again in the hereafter. I believe that your love and your relationship with Tom is real and will last forever. And until that day when you will see him again, may the many good and wonderful memories you have of Tom bring you a measure of peace and comfort on this day and every day. Peace.

    I don't know you, and I wish I had the opportunity to tell you that if people don't accept you for you (just like your parents), then screw em. It's their loss. Now the world has lost a beautiful soul. I know you are looking down at your partner with a smile and I hope you are guiding him to happiness from the tragic end of your life. RIP Tom.

    Love to you Shane, obviously you guys packed in a lot of beautiful memories, fun, adventure, and love in a very short time. One reason it's so great to be gay - - we all seem to do this.
    Tom's only family was you and that cute dog and the his Community and home was the West Coast, not Indiana. Peace be with you.

    All these awesome comments show how good and awesome people are when we open our heart to love and support. While bigots are poor pathetic people full of hate, we are here giving strenght to Shane and trying to make a better world for everyone. Let´s celebrate and concentrate on the fact that a new world of equal rights is arising. Warm hug brother and sisters. Share the TRUE LOVE!

  • @nightgathering
    @nightgathering 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I am an atheist but reading that not all religious people are as Tom´s parents(they seem monsters, not parents), gives me solace, hope all religious people who push homophobia, open their heart to unconditional LOVE and stop mockery and bigotry.

    @smf4eva2008 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks, I totally agree with you. People who hate are self absorbed, they live under a rock with their own set of rules. ♥Love♥ trumps hate! Hate is like cancer, it will eat away at your heart strings. Love, Faith & Acceptance will one day conquer the enemy & pure ignorance. ♥ ◕‿ ◕

  • @JHCheshireCat2
    @JHCheshireCat2 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    i just cried knowing that people could keep someones love from them even tho that the lovers did all those things together. and it just isn't right! that is just not right its like............ how in the world can someone live with themselves after not allowing the person see their lover! ~RIP TOM

  • @Misscrazytrain2u
    @Misscrazytrain2u 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    At least Tom's "real" friends loved and accepted him for who he was and these pics prove that! Now everyone knows what his parents views really were and they all should be ashamed of their behaviour!!

  • @nightgathering
    @nightgathering 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Of course, carry on and make your dreams true. We have a world to change, so that unjustices as homophobia can be just a bad memorie one day. A better world is possible, it depends of us all. Life is struggle, I wish you could find a true love and be joyful as Tom and Shane have been. We all deserve sheer joy and unconditional love.

  • @alaskangalb
    @alaskangalb 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    wow. Looks happy, funny, caring, talented, obviously handsome. Why couldn't his family see and love him for him? I have a friend who is afraid to come out to his parents for this very reason. At least there seem to be plenty that loved and love him.
