Tom was my neighbor and friend. He welcomed us when we moved here 20 years ago.He would always say Hi and ask how my mom and I were doing.
I will dearly miss our chats when he would be sitting on the porch with Honey playing in the yard.
Tom was a wonderful and kind man.
May God bless Becky, Kelly and family during this difficult time.

You weren't just my daddy, you were my bestest friend in the whole universe, my teacher, my partner in crime, my whole entire world. I don't know how I'm going to get through this life without you, I feel so lost, but I will with the help of our family and friends because I promised you I would. I have no words to accurately express how much I love you daddy. You were my light on the darkest days, my protector, and my biggest supporter. Thank you for all that you've done for me, your family and friends and everyone you've come across. Your smile, laughter, and jokes will be so incredibly missed. God be with you, keep you in his loving care. Sweet dreams daddy. I love you always and forever and then some. Be at peace finally, a peace you have deserved for so long. Until we meet again, a day I look forward to the most. I love and miss you so so much.
