machine gun kelly Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 I used to think 83 was a long life, until my dad hit 83 last August. I never watched Tommy as I was born in 67, but anyone on the inaugural Bills team is special. RIP my fellow Irishman

dhg Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 RIP. Wasn't he one of the original owners of O'Connell, Lucas and Chelf clothing store too?

Chandler#81 Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 Just hearing the name, I thought QB. Yep. Our 1st starter. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1960_Buffalo_Bills_season Thank you, Tommy. R.I.P.
CowgirlsFan Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Prayers to the family and to Bills Nation. My old Don Meredith ( Cowboys 1960-1968 ) and him must be sharing old times together.
