Tom(Sealskinner) Frost passed away after a long battle with lung disease, and more recently...bone cancer. Recently he was being cared for via hospice at home as I understand it. He had his Valk set up to carry oxygen bottles, and has traveled quite a bit that way. He was in Johnson City at the last InZane there, riding his Voyager triked Valk up from Florida. He also would often ride up to visit his family...daughters I believe, not sure where but in the SE so it wasn't a short trip. Tom was a great friend and you liked him from the moment you met him. He will be missed, but he is no longer struggling to breathe and no more pain. Rest in peace, my good friend. Your absence is difficult to take just now. John I found a picture that depicts Tom as we all knew him...thumbs up and wearing a big smile.  |

One of our own is gone. Hard to find a more likeable guy, always ready to help. Shared many miles of wind with Tom. Both Kim & I are saddened deeply by his passing. He was always trying to con Kim out of her Corbin sidecovers & she would have none of it. Enjoyment of our Valkyries has been enhanced by knowing Tom. What makes me happy is knowing that we shared many good times in the last few years of his life. Our Valks brought us together but we certainly were not limited to just bike talk. His love for his family was very appearent, he spoke often of his love & respect for his wife. He was always there to listen to me as I related the trials & tribulations of my life, always supportive & understanding. People like Tom are hard to find, he will be missed. :'(  |

Tom was a great man, a husband, a father and a Grandfather. He was a good freind. Pics of his beautiful bike at the North Florida BBQ run, several years back.   He was a great man, who left a positive influence on all he met. He even made the trip to Daytona to see all his Valkyrie freinds this past year (even though he couldn't ride) You are all right, Tom will be remembered and missed by many. |

Tom was a faithful Valkyrie Rider, if he could not come to an event on his bike, he would come in the convertible, just to hang out with us all. He will truly be missed, my thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.
