A perfect day for Thom included riding his bike around Veterans Lake, spending time with his family, and fishing. Old-school Saturday Night Live and the humor of his loved ones never failed to make him laugh.Those who knew Thom will remember him as kind, patient, and generous with both his time and talents. He passed on these qualities to others, making him a wonderful teacher and mentor. Intelligent, down-to-earth, and devoted to his family, Thom enjoyed unwinding, undertaking various projects, and doting on his granddaughters.
