As an LCC class of '69 grad, I was proud to know Tom and enjoyed listening to him play guitar & sing in the only local rock band of our era and knew He had a passion for cars. So appreciate his gift of service and my thoughts and prayers go out to his Family.

Sharon and family, down in Florida visiting my sister and heard the sad news from Pat Killian. So very sorry for the loss. I did a lot of North Street cruising with Tom and Don Pendergast and Greg Swick. He had such a wonderful sense of humor, a heart of gold and the sweetest looking red Mustang ever!! Rest in peace, Tom. While the years divided us, I will always remember you as such a big part of my school days. John Grindrod

We lived next door to Tom on Bermuda Dr. when TJ and Derek were little. Our boys played together with the Wehinger boys and Eddie and Lewis who lived behind us. I remember many good conversations around the kitchen table. Tom was a good guy who will be missed. Our deepest sympathy to the family.

We are so sorry to hear about Tom's passing. We lost touch over the years, but would see him and one or two of the boys at the car shows from time to time. Always enjoyed sharing hunting and car stories. Craig and Tom were hunting buddies in the late 1970's - early 1980's. TJ and Derek were very young. Tom will be missed. We would like to thank him for his service to our country and a life well lived. God Bless you, Tom. Our Deepest Sympathy to your family, Craig and Deb Henkener

Sharon and the full extended family of Tom. I was so sorry to hear of Tom's passing. Too young and too soon. I had a lot of great laughs and heard a lot of great stories from Tom the many years I worked with him. May God hold you all in his arms during your time of mourning. May God's face shine upon Tom as he goes to his eternal resting place free of pain and full of spirit.
God Bless you all.
