One of the most admirable man I ever knew. I had the pleasure of being Toms secretary at Farmers Bank and Trust, Winchester, TN. We remained friends for many years afterwards, and it was always nice to hear from Tom. I am so sad to see where his life has come to an end, but know his legacy will live on through his sons who he loved and adored. My deepest condolences to his family and friends. ~Dottie Davison
