I just learned of Tom's passing and the news brought back a lot of warm memories of our times together. I remember the times Tom and I spent in the car for hours upon hours as we put up my yard signs in all parts of Butler County. Tom was one of my most loyal supporters. I was fortunate to count him as a friend. I pray that God will watch over his family and comfort them in this time of loss.

Tom was a good friend thru HI Twelve, he was Roger's 2nd Vice President when Roger was President of HI Twelve International, we enjoyed being with both of you at conventions and meetings thru the years. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Wanda and family.
God Bless and keep each of you in his loving arms during this difficult time. Roger and Lonnie Hansen

I am saddened to learn of Tom's passing. He installed me into several offices of Illinois High Twelve including State President in 2009. He was quite a legend and his shoes will never be filled.
Well done good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of your Master. (Matthew chapter 25)
I will miss him.
Companion,
