I was an advisor with Tom at Chico State with Alpha Phi Omega, Eta Psi chapter. I found Tom to be very friendly and enjoyed life. He helped open doors on campus for the students and was always available for the students in helping them in any way. He was a kind man and a good example for the members to emulate. He will be missed. My best to his family.

I met Tom when we both worked at Chico State. Whenever our paths would cross on campus, Tom always took the time to say Hi and greet you with a smile--which always brightened ones day. Tom was a very friendly and kind man and it was a pleasure to know him! Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.
