I am so sorry on your loss. I found out today about Mr. Ferguson. I knew him when he would come to the bank he was truly one of the nicest men I have ever known. I'm glad he is at peace and know Heaven is a happier place.

He was my oldest and dearest friend. We met in 6th grade in that little piney woods schoolhouse deep in east Texas. that was the start of our neverending journey through time eternal. We were "high school sweethearts" at Brookeland High where we both graduated. We were married in 1959. Michele arrived 4 years later, TJ, 3 years after that.
Although our interests took us in different directions in the early 70s, we remained ever present in each other's lives. Our one constant was the love. Over the years, Tom brought others into my life whom I came to love. Pamela, Rachel and Terri became my family too. Tom loved my son Michael. We loved each other's children. My life is richer for that. We enjoyed many weekends together as an extended family out here on Lake Medina with all the kids, grand kids, aunts, uncles, nephews and nieces. James and Gloria and their kids & grand kids. That weekend last summer when everybody showed up. Pam & Mark came, Geri Lynn, Cheryl and their kids and spouses, our kids and grand kids, my kids, his kids. We played 42, cooked, swam and had a blast on the pontoon boat.
Tom, I am proud of what we did with the love we had for each other. The way we put our family together and made it so special. Because of you, we are not fragmented but are one extended, loving family comprised out of both our marriages, each one of us an integral part.
Tom, I don't remember a time when you weren't there for me. You are still here for me. My world will not be the same without you in it. I know you know it - but I will say it anyway; I loved you from the beginning, I love you still, I will love you always. Martha

Terry, Michelle, TJ and the rest of the Ferguson family and friends.
We just wanted you to know how much your beloved husband and father touched our lives. Tom was Gold in a world full of dross.
The Bible tells us that in the
Passage Jeremiah 9:7:7 Therefore thus says the Lord of hosts: Behold, I will melt them [by the process of affliction to remove the dross] and test them, for how else should I deal with the daughter of (children of) My people?
His journey was a difficult one and yet he triumphed where so many fall. Tom was a living breathing miracle and he shared his joy freely that was our blessing.
In this his final test God showed mercy as only he can and he took his son, Tom, home.
Tom truly did light up a room with his winning smile and ready heart. He loved you all so much and was so greatful for your love for him. I know he is in heavan at the big meeting with all those saints who've gone before and he is looking down with the same love and gentle guiding hand he so deftly wielded here. I see his winning smile and feel his hug as he speaks his love and grattitude for you his family. We are blessed to have known him and join you in your sorrow for your loss and your celebration of such wonderful love in your lives. May God continue to bless and keep you, comforting you as you fondly remember.

Terri,
So sorry to hear about Tom. I didn't know he was sick until we went to dad's for Christmas and I asked him if you two were coming. It sure was a pleasure to know him and I know Chris will miss the shuffleboard matches at the Moose. If there's anything we can do for you please let us know. You and the family are in our prayers.

Ferguson Family,
I was blessed with a devine appointment when I first met Tom. I can't begin to tell you of the changes I made in my life due to this man's enate ability to make complicated issues so simple. He was able to give you a life experience and just give some insights that he was able to overcome. He was always kind and gentle with his words. He was always there to give assistance or offering ideas for the success of whatever bussiness venture. I thank the Furgeson family, for allowing us to share such a great person. I am so blessed to have been able to shake the hand of a true Gentleman, God Fearing, Well balanced, Strong ethical values, and a family man. I can go on and on with what Tom has done to influence my life for the good and to also recognize that we are only here for a short visit. But, while we still can, we can make a difference too. I can only hope to be able to immulate his walk in life. We here at the Cabrera home will lift up our prayers. May GOD wrap his loving arms around you and give you the strenth to know that you are loved.

Tom was one of those extrondinary people that you meet every once in a while. He always made you feel like he was happy to see you. I worked for Straus Frank Company and over the years, Tom was not only a customer but a dear friend. I will remember him in my prayers.

Daddy, I love you always. And I know that you will continue to speak to me, reminding me to do the right thing and that I am loved. Still, I cannot begin to imagine this new year without your presence.
One week ago today, I'm thankful that I was able to hold your hand and stay close to your side. While we had to let go, I will never let go of the love that fills my heart for you. You are, and you will always be, my hero.

I met Tom at a Christmas party Tasco held every year. He struck me as a interesting man. He sat and told me a few stories of how Tasco started and how he loved the business. We seen each other a few more times after the first party and I got to know him a bit more. I have to say he was a great man and know he is in a better place, painfree. I hope you all know that he now is watching over you. Tom you will be missed by many friends and family.

I met Tom through my father, Glen Schulz, while at a convention in Las Vegas many years ago and was a little shocked and thrilled to find that a man with his great success was so kind to everyone he met. He touched many lives including my own. It was an honor and a pleasure to know him and I hope all of the kind words written by so many that loved him will help your family in some small way by knowing how respected and cared for he is.

Tom,
Although our paths crossed only a handful of times, I remember your big smile and enthusiasm for life. Your passion for excellence was evident in all that you did. Looking at the photos in the album, it is evident that God's plans for your life were fulfilled. We are all comforted in knowing that He has now welcomed you into paradise.

I would not have known of Tom's passing if my daughter had not called me from Houston to ask if I knew Tom. And if she had not called I would not have noticed Thomas Wayne Ferguson in the orbs.
I grew up with Tom, James and Barbara in that little East Texas town of Brookeland. I knew their aunt Bessie. When in high school we lived about a mile and a half from her but by that time Tom, James and Barbara had finished school and left Brookeland.
After I married while my husband James Hilliard was in Germany, my grandparents, Brittain and Pearl Anderson and I lived in Selmen's rent house, the old Shoemake place. I knew the younger brothers and sisters better. They were children when we lived in that house.
I remember James pumping gas at Selmen's gas station when it was fifty cents a gallon. I was still living in Brookeland but working in Jasper.
I honestly can't say I knew Tom. I remember he was a very handsome young man with black hair. He was four years older than I, therefore he was gone from his Aunt Bessie's before I grew up enough to know him except by sight and speeking to him occasionally when I did see him.
Yet, when I read his obituary tears came to my eyes for the man he became and the boy I never knew enough.
I have signed many guest books but never one with any other entries. Tom's guest book is full. What a tribute.
I know you, his family and friends, will miss him so very much, and surprisingly I will miss him too though I haven't thought of him in years.
May God Bless all of you.

I only knew Tom for a short time although we did cross pathes many years ago ( I was a painter at Steeplechase for a short time). In the short time I knew Tom this go-around I really grew a lot of respect for the man. Tom and I visited the last time I saw him for about 2 hours. The time slipped away on us .We talked about some business,some of lifes challenges and whole lot about hunting . Well if you know me you would know he was a man after my own heart. Tom had a way of making everybody feel good about themselves and that he actually cared about their lifes. We will all miss Tom. I have been in the local body shop community for over 26 years and never have I witnessed so many people touched , like I have with the loss of Tom. Again, we will all miss him. God bless Tom,his family,friends and business associates.
Sincerely,
Greg Pagans

If we are very very lucky, we have a man like Tom Ferguson in our lives. He was the epitomy of kindness, integrity, and sincerity. A truly honorable man. For us, he was a friend that had no equal. Always there. Always caring. There is a huge void in our lives with his passing. Tom, we loved you and respected you and will miss you many many times before we get to see you again. Go in peace, dear friend, go in peace.

I had the pleasure of knowing Tom as an employee and a customer. I will never forget how he treated others with the greatest respect. I was always happy to see him walk through my door. I've admired him from the moment I met him. He definitely was a gift to the world and his success in life says it all. God bless you and your family Tom.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you the family of Mr. Tom. We had the priviledge of meeting him several years ago at Patricks Paint & Body in Kirbyville, TX. He was truly a wonderful man and yes he did like to talk about his hometown of Brookland. After we started to work in Beaumont at Fasulo's Paint & Body he was pleased to know we had made a good move. He was good about that. So we will truly miss his uplifting and wonderful friendship. May God Bless.

To the extended family of Tom,
Many are the days of youth gone by, but the found memories of friends and mentors remain. Friend foremost was Tom. Mentor to me as a 17 year old kid with his first job at Tasco #6 on Hillcroft 1977. Many a lesson learned from a man great in heart and soul. Blessings and lessons were bestowed by God through Tom. Happy are the ones that know salvation, for they know they will see Tom again.

I already miss Tom making his way up the stairs to give us words of encouragement with a smile or to share his sense of humor with us to ease the cares and stress of the day away. I could have never imagined working under someone who would possess half the qualities that Tom masterfully displayed on a daily basis. I will be forever grateful to him for opening the door for me and inviting me into his wonderful families. I have had the pleasure of meeting his family who was around for all aspects of his life as well as the family he created throughout the years with open arms, compassion, hard work, and the love that he shared with us all. Tom will truly be missed and forever remembered by the masses with as many lives as he has touched. So until the next time we meet I pray that he may rest in peace.

It was an Honor to know Tom he and I had a great deal in common and a unique friendship in spite of our age difference. Tom was my friend first and for most I will miss him dearly. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends they are the ones who need your sympathy because i know Tom is looking down on us from heaven not wanting us to grieve but to celebrate his life. I'll miss our lunches at Fogo Tom but I bet the lamb chops are better in heaven!

It is with great sadness that I write this after hearing of your passing. I had heard that you were ill but had no idea that God would be taking you home so soon. I wish that I would have taken time to thank you for the difference that you made in my life. You made the banking business much more than just a business. I took comfort in reading that you had instilled your values in your children. Those are great values to have. I had the opportunity to visit with a couple of your right hand men on my visit to Houston earlier this year and was more than impressed with thier business savy. They told me that they had been with you for quite a while and I cound sense the Ferguson training in our business dealings. I take great comfort in knowing that the business that you poured your life into is in such capable hands. I look forward to talking to you again some day. we will have a lot to catch up on. I pray for your family and friends.

To the friends and family of Tom Ferguson;
Having known Tom for many years through the business and some of his family, and employees, as well as my wife working with Rebecca, I will tell you he will be sorely missed. Tom was always there to help me with my business and did everything he could to ensure my success. For Tom you see, it was more of a joy to be able to help his friends and business partners before he ever looked to himself for profit. Michelle, TJ, I hope to see you tonight. You all are in our prayers.

My husband has worked for Tom Ferguson for over 10 years and he has always had wonderful things to say about how fair and honest Tom was. I remember meeting Tom and his son and family in a restaurant and he made it a point to stand up and shake my hand and tell me how wonderful it was to meet me. He told me also that my husband was a good and valued employee. That is how he was and he was truly respected by all who knew him or worked for his company. Thank You Lord for Tom Ferguson and the example he set for the world. We will see you again some day Mr. Ferguson when the Lord takes us to the home he prepared for us all.

Your obituary portrays your life perfectly. You've left big shoes to fill! I know you are watching down on us from Heaven and I am thankful to know that I have such a wonderful guardian angel. You will live on in my heart forever and I am so grateful for all my fond memories with you.

It was a privelege to know Tom and to have him as part of my life because we shared many of life's problems. However, we both we both found the love of Christ who turned our worlds around. I bless Tom and will truly miss his kinship. I know he is at peace and in a better place that the Lord has prepared for all of us. May all of the family feel the presence of God during this time of mourning and grieving.

We are stunned and saddened beyond belief to hear of your loss. Tom touched so many people in his life and we are all the better for having known him. His kindness and understanding will never be forgotten, nor will he.
God blessed us all by giving us Tom, may God now bless his family in this time of grief and loss.
