Can't wait to tell her all about her Grandpa in heaven

My name is Madelyn LaFlam. I work at the McDonalds Tom always used to come to. Every time I saw him he’d put a smile on my face and make my entire day. He was the sweetest man I’ve ever met. He was always so happy and always smiling when I saw him. When I would work I would always make sure he didn’t pay for his coffee or I would pay for it and I could tell it made his day. He told me he would always get coffee for his wife which I thought was the sweetest thing ever. One day I gave him my phone number in case he needed anything and we would talk once in awhile over the phone. I seen he hadn’t come through McDonald’s in a while and I saw this online. I’m so very sorry for the family of Thomas Sims. I didn’t know him for a long time but he was the sweetest old man I’d ever met. My prayers go out to the whole family. You lost a very special person❤️

The greatest human being I’ve ever known, and will ever know.  A literal saint. 
If you needed something, Uncle Tom was there, no questions asked. 
I miss hearing him say “Hey Jessie!” When I would stop by the house. Always happy to see me. 

I never saw him mad, upset maybe, but never angry. He was always very calm and gentle. He would never scream or yell if you did something wrong, but instead he would respectfully lead you the right way with his endless wisdom. 

I never heard him speak ill of anyone or place judgement on anyone. He was a genuinely wholesome, kind, and loving person. 

I am incredibly grateful to have known him and to be able to call him my family, my Uncle Tom.

I will forever cherish my memories of him.

Tom Sims was everything beautiful in the world. Never an unkind word. He had the ability to love everyone unconditionally, no matter what. He was amazing, beautiful, loving, caring, kind, warm hearted, the most loving person I’ve ever known. He would talk to you and scold you in the same sentence, in the most loving way. He was not only my brother in law, he was my brother. But most of all he was my friend. If you knew Tom at all, you knew that he would do anything for anyone. If you needed him, he was always there. You just don’t meet people like Tom Sims everyday. He was cut from a totally different cloth than the rest of us. And I feel blessed, grateful, and honored, not only to have known him, but to have had the opportunity to say he was my family. People always say they’re in a better place, well I guess that makes me selfish. Because I would prefer for him to be right here so that his kids could hug him and his wife could kiss him and I could pick up the phone and hear his voice. If I am lucky enough to make it to heaven, I know he’ll be there waiting holding the gate open for me. Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure. You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure. I love you always Tom, love Lisa. 


2021 he was only there to "supervise" 😂

Tom Sims was my Hero. Not only my brother in law,  he was like a father to me,  the most intelligent man I have ever known. He will always live in ours hearts and minds. He will forever be loved and missed until we met again.

Dearest Cindy and all my little ''Sims'' family Your dad was a beloved friend to many.  Thomas Noel Sims was the beloved son of Mary Elizabeth Benton Sims and Frederick C. Sims of Durham, NC . Tom'' had an infectious laugh and great smile.  A gentle and kind way of sometimes engaging thought as he pondered over friends and extended family. He left home at adolence age and wanted to explore     travel and God's beatiful world. His letters to home would describe the beauty of the Mediterraean Islands and mostly the beauty of Greece.  He shared the Biblical places that the Apostle"Paul'' described in the New Testament.  He loved to share the Gospel of the LORD AND SAVIOUR, JESUS CHRIST, WHO HE KNEW AT A VERY EARLY AGE.  His introduction to the love of his life ''Cindy'' completed his journey as  he found  stabiity in the ''HOME."  He delighted and doted over his beautiful family and all the ''pets."  I loved him dearly and we shared in the GOSPEL OF OUR LORD/ SAVIOR...JESUS CHRIST!  I will miss our lengthy conversation via phone,  saying ''well Tom, I enjoyed my  visit. He will be sorely missed by many and I can say...'' We will be reunited with those Saints who have gone on before me...''See you in the morning dear beloved BROTHER!!" '' sis " Margaret Sims Hood...
