Born on June 22, 1954, Tom was a man of passion, grit and a deep love for life's fast lanes.
Tom spent his life collecting what he cherished most - fast hot rods and impressive Harley- Davidsons. His passion for cars and motorcycles was unmatched, and his collection was a reflection of his love for speed, craftsmanship, and freedom on the open road. Whether it was the rumble of a classic engine or the shine of freshly polished chrome, Tom found joy and fulfillment in every ride and every restoration.
He is survived by his loving family: his son's: Earl Thomas Wedekind and Thomas Russell Wedekind Jr., his daughter Noel Marie Brown, and his four grandchildren, all of whom brought endless pride and joy.
Tom will be remembered as a proud father and grandfather, a man who lived life unapologetically on his terms. His legacy will live on in the memories of those he loved and the rumble of every hot rod and Harley he leaves behind.
He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
In lieu of flowers, the family encourages those who wish to honor Tom's memory to take a ride, feel the wind, and embrace the freedom Tom held so dear.
