Thomas Diller Obituary
Thomas Stewart Diller, of San Antonio, departed into a new life on May 3, 2014. Tom was born March 24, 1967 in Chiang Mai Thailand and was proud to tell you that fact. His dad, Wes Diller (Lily), was in the Air Force and Tom's early life was spent at different Air Force bases with mother, Carra Franke (Curtis) and his brothers, Joe and John. Tom was the middle child and managed to attract attention to himself with antics that carried into his adulthood. He kept the child in him alive and that is why kids, little old ladies, dogs and his family loved him. His cousins called him a rock star. He was the handsome guy in the crowd who made wisecracks and would have everyone in laughter. He was famous for his Tarzan yell (only one of his many talents), heard for miles out on the lakes he loved. He and his wife, Cristen, (teenage sweethearts, best friends and each the love of their lives) have been together for 27 years. Their son, Logan, has inherited his dad's wit and Tom would be proud of the man he will become in the years ahead. Tom will be dearly missed by all of his UTHSCSA co-workers, his many friends and his family. Tom's love for Cristen and Logan will live on and will comfort them. They are thankful for the kind family and friends who have so willingly offered their love, support and prayers to help them during this difficult time.
