Tom will be missed by many, he will be remembered as one that made a difference in our sport. Family is so important in our business and when a family member is lost, we all grieve together.
To Debbie & the kids, your support made it possible for Tom to put his heart and soul into it and he became a very important part of OKC racing. He loved you'all very much.

Debbie, Mark, and families,
I have very fond memories of Tommy as I was growing up. I will always remember Tommy as a warm and caring soul. I, too, thought of him as a "Gentle Giant'. He could always make me smile and usually found a way to turn it into a laugh. i will miss his big bear hug around my shoulders followed by, "Whatcha been up to, Miss Teresa Kaye?" He will be greatly missed.
Mike and I would like to express our sincere condolences on your loss. God bless.
