My Dad, My Hero
Growing up, superheroes weren't just in comics or movies-they were real. My dad was, and still is, the hero of my story. He didn´t wear a cape, but he carried an invisible strength that made him invincible in my eyes. Through every late-night talk, every lesson taught, and every sacrifice made, he shaped the person I am today. The lessons still pop up in my head and I am constantly asking myself what would Bones do?
He taught me how to be resilient, how to face challenges head-on, and, most importantly, how to care for others with all my heart. Watching him navigate life´s ups and downs with humility and strength has given me a blueprint for facing my own battles. In his quiet way, he showed me what it meant to be courageous, even when the going gets tough.
My dad was the rock, the support, the guiding hand, and the unwavering presence that grounds me. I may never be able to repay him for all he´s done, but I´ll always be proud to call him my hero.
Bones passed away four years ago today, but is still guiding me though this thing called life.

He was a great husband, father and grandfather. For 52 years he taught me how to live a good and decent life by his example. You will be missed, but are in a better place. Until we meet again!

Tom was a coworker in 1982 when I started to work for the Twins. I really enjoyed my years working with Tom. I was always happy to see him when he would come to a game and stop for a visit. My deepest sympathies go out to his wife, children and grandchildren. Peace and Prayers.
