He is sure gonna be missed. I had the most unpredictable fun childhood with him as a dad. I hope he keeps them laughing in heaven. RIP

I grew up down the road from the Ensigns and Mike and I were great childhood friends. Mr Ensign was such a cool guy doing things that no other dad did, one of my favorites is when he got a perm and walked around with curly hair and wrote about people´s reactions, I also love the story when he tried out for the Cleveland browns... just loads of great stories. Mr Ensign will be missed but not forgotten. My heart goes out to Mike, his wife and his sister Wendy. God speed Mr Ensign!!!

Uncle Tommy was one of a kind! Such wonderful and fun childhood memories with him and the family. His gregarious laugh and teasing always made us laugh! Will never forget his big muscles, US Marines tattoo and hours of drinking and card playing along with Aunt Carol and my parents. Rest easy Uncle Tommy.

I consider myself very lucky that Tom (my father) moved out to the San Diego area after his retirement. We had many great years of fun and adventure. I will miss him greatly as he was my best friend as well as my dad.

Tom personified joy. I had the good fortune to work with him for the first few years of my Blade career and the last few of his. For him, every day at work was an adventure waiting to be discovered. He loved to learn something new, then write about it.
He worked in a business that leaves some long-timers cynical, but he was never that. He was that wonder-filled kid on Christmas morning, itching to unwrap the glorious gifts under the tree. And considering every present -- including the challenges -- a blessing.
My sincere condolences to his family and loved ones. He was an amazing man.

I always read Tom first when I opened the Blade. He always gave the story a different perspective.
