Not sure what to say?

So sorry to hear of Tom's passing, I remember him coming to help me finish my house roofing before a storm. Always willing to help. I will miss him. Dale Osstyn

Tom and I worked together for many years. He was always so full of life and definitely had a motto of living life to the fullest. He had a huge heart and was so much fun to be around. You will be dearly missed, my dear friend. My condolences for his wife and his family.

I played rugby with Tom for Detroit rugby club in the late 70s and early 80s. Tom was a great player, teammate, and friend. It was great to see him at the club's 50 year reunion a few years ago. RIP Tom.

I went all through school with Tom. He was smart, confident, and tough (in a good way). In elementary school he brought a mother squirrel and her babies in one spring and our class enjoyed watching them grow up. In HS some of the guys were riding their 90cc Honda's to school. Not Tom - he had the 250cc Big Bear. Everything he did, he did with gusto and with success. Condolences to Shirley and the family.

The first time we met Tom was when he came hunting with his cousin Doug. That was sometime in the mid 90's. Since that time he became part of our family.
He would come hunting nearly every fall and stay in our basement for 2-3 wks. The kids always looked forward to his arrival so that thy had someone to hunt pheasants with.
Over the years he helped build barns, garages, plant trees, roof houses and helped wean and work cattle for us and the neighbors that he became friends...

I always look forward to fall, because it means Tom was soon to follow, hunting pheasants with his German Shorthairs. He always had patience for us when we were young and he was an inspiration for both Seth and I. I will very much miss listening to Tom's stories. His loss is very deeply felt by our entire family.

in memory of Tom

Shirley, Richard and family
We are so sorry to hear about Toms passing. He was a great friend. Lots of good times and memories.
I worked with Tom and his dad up north cutting, peeling and loading poplar wood to take to the paper mill. We would go hunting together, and I spent a lot of time over at his house playing board games with him and his parents.
Shirley, Richard and family we are so sorry for your lost.
Will always have good memories.
Deepest sympathies from me and my...
