Tommy grew up in Bakersfield. He was a Senior at Mojave River Academy and would have graduated in 2023.
Tommy was the light of the family. He was outgoing, strong, and affectionate. He had the biggest heart and would give you the shirt off his back. He was the kind of person who never met a stranger. He loved music and sports, especially soccer. He rode dirt bikes and four wheelers and well, he just loved anything that had wheels. He insisted that his grandma take the training wheels off his bicycle when he was just two. He was a friend to everyone and always had a smile on his face.
Tommy was planning for his future when tragedy struck and stole him from his family They were not prepared for the high cost of a funeral service and are reaching out to the community during this difficult time. His family would like to give him the funeral service he deserves, to honor him and to say their last goodbyes. 100 % of donations raised will go directly to the family. Please consider donating.
