I just wanted to say how sorry I am to hear of Tommy's passing. I never met him but from your description of him he sounds like a real character and very much like my cat Baby, he too was my baby.
I love your idea of lighting the candles in the garden and am going to do it for all the cats I have lost, too many I'm afraid.
