Tom always had such a big smile when we spoke. He never missed an event his grandkids were involved in and would show up on a dime if they needed something at school. I often encountered him in the school parking lot dropping something off for someone or picking up one of his grandkids. With his family was exactly where he always wanted to be. He was a blessing to all who knew him. Tom will certainly be missed.
Cheyenne, I am so sorry to hear about your grandfather. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Much Love and Respect.
Tom has been looked upto as the big brother and will greatly be missed.
