God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. Tom was married to our daughter Darcy for many years. Tom was more like a son to us than a Son-In-Law, especially to his Father-In-Law Danny. Even after Tom and Darcy parted ways he still came and stayed with us. They both enjoyed hunting & fishing. I remember asking Tom what he wanted me to make him for his birthday dinner, I was thinking a big juicy steak, but no he wanted either meatloaf or liver & onions!! That was Tom pretty down to earth. I am so glad I have wonderful memories of our time with Tom.
