Tom was a cherished and loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend. He was a fun loving, creative, kind hearted, hard working, and generous man.

Thomas was a god fearing man, may his family and friends please find comfort in knowing that he is at home with the lord as well as all of his loved ones who have gone before him. He will be so greatly missed by all who knew him.
