Tom's smile and fun-loving personality will be greatly missed at SEAS and at the SEAS Men's Club. As a fellow Jesuit grad, we often spoke of the good-old days at Jesuit. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Kass and the entire family. - Ed and Patti Traupman

Dear Kass & children, we are so sorry to hear about Tom. You were awesome neighbors who we missed when we moved from Plano. This is a difficult time for all of you. We send our deepest condolences and will remember you in our prayers. Tom was a loving family man . Sending hugs ! Maryann & Bill Richard

It was always great to see and talk to Tom at our Church's Men's Club! He always had a welcome and a smile for everyone. He will be missed and not forgotten.
