Carol, I was shocked and saddened to hear of Tom's sudden passing. I am so sorry for your loss. My family and I have wonderful memories of the time we spent with your family during Tyler and Mike's era of playing hockey and golf for Portage Central. My heart goes out to you and your sons.

Offering my sincerest condolences to the family of a great member of our community. I had the pleasure of umpiring many baseball games with Tom during our service to Little League Baseball - he was always the ultimate professional. He will be missed!

Tom's passion for quality education was inspiring. It was always a pleasure to speak with Tom. He will be missed!

No words can express how sadden I am for you of Tom's passing. Please know you will be in my thoughts and prayers. I am sorry I can not attend the services as we are in Arizona for the winter. All my love to you.
