Tom loved to ride. For every horseback ride, he was always mounted first and waiting for us slow pokes. Ride on Tom, ride on!

Tom, you have been so missed on all the trails, at all the horse camps and Ozark Ridge Rider events! I loved when you shared tales of your youth, growing up riding and then some years of "train-hopping" cross country with a friend or 2 if I remember correctly! You are a great teller of tales and so fun to listen and talk to. We will continue to honor your memory in all our days, whether on trails, camping, or every day here at "home camp" of the St Louis area. God bless you and your family!
