In 1984, Tom was united in marriage to Peggy Clegg in Nevada. They enjoyed their life together until Peggy's passing in 2014. Tom lived his life in many states and worked as a carpenter. His later years were spent in Strawberry Point.
Tom very much enjoyed the outdoors. He was an avid fisherman and had several favorite fishing holes. Tom enjoyed grilling, video games, and his dogs and cats. He was always surrounded by one pet or more. Most of all Tom enjoyed spending time with his family and friends.
Survivors include his two sons, Thomas (Lisa) Farr of Strawberry Point and Christopher Farr of Huntsville, Texas; two stepdaughters, Tina (Dwayne) Thompson and Shawna (Bradley) Cowen; his grandson, Travis (Jessica) Terrell with many other grandchildren; and several great grandchildren.
