We were shocked to learn of Tom´s passing. Jim has lots of memories with the two of you. He remembers sitting in the Mexican restaurant having another late lunch of corn tortillas and discussing Jim´s allergy to some food. He and Tom just couldn´t seem to figure it out. So Jim had food allergy testing and it is corn he is allergic too. They both laughed about that.!
We remember the fun times at the lake too. We hope wonderful memories will help you during your difficult times. Sending loads of hugs.

We knew Tom, Barbara, and Angie as a great family. Both were excellent caring ENT´s that we used often. We hated to lose them from our lives when they moved, both as physicians and friends. Angie played sports with our daughter Lindsey. We pray now for this wonderful family. You left us a lot of great memories. God Bless you all and may you enjoy your fond memories with Tom.

I am so sorry to hear of Dr Tom´s passing. I worked with Dr Barb and Dr Tom for about 10 years in Papillion as an audiologist. Many wonderful memories of them both, as well as Angie, as she loud-whispered at my wedding "When is the baby coming?" Too funny. Not sure who was mortified at that comment, the parents or the bride! May you all find comfort in your many memories of him as husband, father, Dr, and friend.
