I don't know where to start with my favorite memories there are so many. Tom meant so much to me and he always showed me and told me how proud of me he was. When I was 16 him and my mom brought me to Florida for my birthday. It was the best time I got to swim with dolphins which was my dream. He was there when I graduated high-school cheering me on and celebrating with me. He was one of my biggest cheerleaders when I decided to go back to school and celebrated when I received my associates and then my bachelors degree. I will forever miss the laughs we shared and the way he loved me as his own. I love you Tom I miss you I will forever. I'll hold on to all the loving memories and I know you will be celebrating with me when I reach my masters degree.

Deb - Sister

The greatest memories I will cherish of Tom are the many vacations he set up for his family and my kids and grandkids in TN. I always looked up to him when he became saved and admired the love he had for the Lord. I was fortunate to spend the last month of his life with him cooking some of our mom's best meals that he wanted. We talked about growing up and we laughed and cried, and I'll never forget him. I love him dearly and will miss him!
