We’re so sorry about Tom passing on. I will continue to laugh at his silly antics, so his memory lives on. Ladd always enjoyed Tom being part of the men’s Bible Study on Friday mornings many years ago. We’re praying for oomfort for your family. Tom will be missed. He sure loved all of you very much!
May God give you comfort.

Cheryl-Sorry for you loss. Sounds like he was a great man, great husband, father and grandfather. I’ll keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers-Greg Beaudin
May you find comfort in your fond memories of Tom that never fade away. He will be missed but not nearly as much as he will be remembered.
I had the pleasure of seeing Tom at Ilene’s awhile back. He was excited about her car he was driving and wanted her to see it. We had a very enjoyable visit.
Memories are a gift to be opened when those we love are gone from us….hoping that many good memories will sustain you in the coming days
MAY GOD BLESS YOUR FAMILY, THANKS FOR THE MERORIES

Cheryl and Family, We will miss him so much! I know he wanted the family to be closer and he hoped to do that before he died. I think he did and more. He did not want to give up he had so much to see and do yet… But he told me god has other plans and his family is going to go on and carry his love with him where ever they are.. He also said for all of us to open our hearts to love each other there is no time to waste.. I love you uncle Tom thank you for the memories and your love!!!
