Thomas J. Trolson, 36, died suddenly on Monday, May 12, 2025, in Superior, WI.
Tom was born in Duluth, MN, to Debra Parsons and Loren Trolson. He graduated from Harbor City International School in 2006.
Known for his quick wit, kind heart, and vibrant personality, Tom brought joy and laughter to everyone around him. He enjoyed curling, throwing darts, golfing, and spending time at the cabin with family and friends. A passionate gamer and proud "nerd," Tom especially loved playing Dungeons & Dragons and World of Warcraft. He was the life of the party-always eager to connect with others, listen to their stories, and make them feel welcome.
Tom worked for many years as a bartender at the Anchor Bar & Grill, where his outgoing nature and genuine warmth made him a favorite among patrons and coworkers alike.
He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Betty and David Parsons, and Beulah and Walter Trolson.
Tom is survived by his father, Loren Trolson; his mother, Debra (Rod) Johnson; his brother, Ted (Kathie Young) Trolson; his fiancée, Cassandra Schick; his uncle and aunt, Dale & Bonne Trolson; his aunt, Cyndee Parsons; and his cousins, Inga (Miranda) Parsons and Christine (Pete) Hanson.
A Celebration of Life will be held from 4:00–8:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 21, 2025, at Ace's on 29th Street, 2827 Oakes Ave., Superior, WI. His remains will be placed in the columbarium at Riverside Cemetery in Superior, WI.
Tom will be deeply missed and fondly remembered by all who knew and loved him.
