I think of Mr.Tom often. Every time someone mentions bosses at their job, I always mention him he was and still a true legend to me. I miss him dearly

We became friends with Tom when he and Jeff came to our HPW Wrestling shows in Columbus, IN When managed the Holiday Inn. Tom is one of the best people we know and so happy to call him a friend. Was able later to stay in touch after they moved from IN. Was able to visit with Tom a couple times when he invited us to the Casino Hotel he ran a couple times and he treated us like old friends. Our world has lost a great man. Thoughts and prayers to the family. R.I.P Tom our friend!

I worked with Tom for several years when he lived in Indiana. We were both employed as Hotel Managers at different properties by the same company. We kept in touch over the years as he and I both moved to different states to work. My last contact with him was when he managed the Cypress Bayou Hotel in LA. Suddenly all contact was lost. Telephone messages left on his cell and office phones were never returned, as well as a note sent in concern to his home in Baton Rouge. I've thought of him often as have his friends, Leonard Walls, and Ronnie Woodward. We all respected his silence and stopped trying to communicate. I can't explain why I did an internet search today, probably lingering concern, and I found him here. Tom was an excellent and respected Hotel Manager who was always there with a response when I would consult him with a managerial problem at my property. He was kind, sincere and trustworthy to all that crossed his path. And despite the day-to-day pressures of the job, he maintained his sense of humor. Our
world has lost an exceptional human being. To Vicki and family, please accept our sincere condolences.

Tom, you were one of the finest co-workers one could ask for. There was not one thing about Hotel Operations that you didn't know and was always ready to share your expertise. You served as a Mentor for many of your associates. I'll miss our long conversations about the Hotel Industry. Thank you for being a good friend.
