Was hoping to see Tommy this week here at Myrtle Beach for bike week. I enjoyed him here 2 years ago and we had a great time. He was a great person and a lot of laughs. My Band will be celebrating Tommys life when we play this bike week and will be dedicating Allman Brothers to him. Rest in Peace Tommy!

To the Trevor family i am so sadden by this and not upset with WKTV about what they did. I am sure this could be teaching our children what can cause accidents and maybe safety issues on riding bikes at night. Truly sorry.

I truly understand that news must be reported - but my husband who is Tom's brother was on duty and had not been able to notify me yet concerning his brother's death and I learned this by watching footage of Tom in a body bag at the scene on the news only a few hours following the accident. WKTV please show some compassion in the future in your accident footage... that footage was very traumatic to our family. On behalf of the family -Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers.

I am deeply sorry to hear this, and my condolence goes out to his family. I am concerned that there was more to that accident that we will never know. That area is over populated with deer, and other nocturnal animals, that just might of crossed in front of him to cause him to lose control? It would be very hard to prove that, for they shoot out so fast, and gone with out a trace.

I think it was in poor taste that you showed a picture of Tom being resucitated on the news this morning. If you had to show anything, why not just show a picture of motorcyle. This was very devestating to his many family members and friends.
