Tom and his father, Ken, were instrumental in my developing a Van Hoof family history and genealogy. It was their visit to Holland and meeting Bridget Kranen Van Hoof in Waalre that connected us to our roots and led to a wealth of information about our early history. Subsequently, in phone interviews with Tom, I experienced the richness of Van Hoof friendliness, open mindedness, cheerfulness and fun. He was one of the highlights in my recording family history.

We are so sorry for your loss. I last remember seeing Tom getting ready for a bike ride. But then he was always ready for a ride. He was an inspiration for all who knew him.
