Memories of you,Tom, go back to WHS geometry class where we shared adjoining seats.
I was the shy one, but I remember you as being friendly and easy-going even back then.
You never changed! You were a good soccer coach to Christopher too! . And I enjoyed the occasions when Dave and I were able to socialize with you and Rachel whether by chance at a restaurant or at the many get-togethers that Janice hosted. You both touched our lives in a positive way.

Rachel and family - We are so sorry to hear of Tom's sudden passing and hope that the prayers of friends and your faith in Christ will carry you through the difficult days ahead.

I served with Tom many years ago in the National Guard, and we shared many laughs along the way. He was always upbeat and smiling with a positive attitude and ready to share a good joke.
More importantly he was a proud "Family Man " who was happily old fashioned in his expression of love for his Wife and children . He made a lasting impression on me, and although much time has passed since we last spoke, there lingers a sense of loss. Thoughts, prayers and positive energy are sent to all of Tom's Family.

My sympathy to Stacy and her family on the passing of your husband, dad, grandfather. He was such a polite man, and loved his stories, when he would at times come to pick up his grandson Zander. By the love that his family has for him, he will be missed. Prayers to you all in this coming week and months , that God will help you to get through the loss, and keep him close by in your hearts forever until you meet again in his house.
