Tom was a great guy, there was something very special about him. He was one of my favorite people to run into at a reptile show. He was always smiling and having a good time and he drew you into that. If you met Tom he made you feel like a long time friend, I don't think he had acquaintances just friends. R.I.P. Tom.
This was the first snake I got from Tom, a Pastel Crystal that is still one of my favorites.

I don't know if I ever got to meet him, but I just purchased a mystic crystal and I'm quite excited for all the awesomeness that he will bring to my collection. This is my Dresden.

Re: In memory of Tom Baker, originator of the Special/Crystal
A friend also mentioned that Tom was the originator of the Epic gene as well! I don't have any experience with the Epic- anyone have Epic or Epic combos to post?
Tom's list of "world's first" isn't even accurate, I assure you in the last few years he produced 25+ new combos that aren't listed.

I just found out about this a few days ago. I feel so very sad. I remember we used to spend a lot of time chatting on Ralphs old forum, he was such an interesting guy to know. Tom was a great guy and I will miss him.
