Tom was born November 1, 1953 in Marshfield to Harold and Eloise (Hansen) Henseler. He attended grade school at St. Mary's in Bakerville and was a 1971 graduate of Marshfield High School.

Dedicated to his community, he served as president of both the Marshfield Rotary and Main Street Marshfield and volunteered his time with Winter Wonderland. Known as the rock to all his family and friends, he was a steady source of love, laughter, and support.
