Tom was the greatest of friends.

I worked with Tom for many years. He was funny, very heipful. If we needed any thing in the kitchen he was right there to help us. His memory will last forever. Helen Plotts.

Heartfelt sympathy to his family & friends.

Only knew Tom for 2 years as a classmate at EGR! What a wonderful gentleman and good friend! Will keep him and the rest of the family in my prayers!

It was around 1994 when the Lord placed a beautiful lady named Barb in our lives. Along with this lovely lady came a wonderful and gracious man named Tom. So many memories of Camp Henry, gatherings with friends and sharing the excitement of grandchildren. You have never been far from our thoughts and prayers, Tom. Connie and family, you are special and while there is another hole in your hearts, what beautiful memories you can treasure. Love Louise (Weezer).

Dear Connie and Halstead family, We were so sorry to hear of Tom´s death. What wonderful memories we have of him at Camp Henry. He and your mom were both such inspirations to all who knew them. Camp Henry was not just a job for Tom but a mission. He will be missed but remembered by many. Our prayers are with you as you deal with his death. Blessings, Carolyn and Jim Morse

Tom's smile and hugs were one of my favorite parts of returning to the shores of Lake Kimball every summer. His warmth and generosity were abundant and his love for his family (including his Camp Henry family) were endless. How much he's meant to me and how much I'll miss him. Much love to his family.

I knew Tom for many years including all through EGR once he joined us. He was a Terrific guy and enjoyed by all of us in the class of 1957. He was funny, bright , very fast on his feet and just a darn neat guy. I will miss him. Chuck
