Cheryl & family, 
Our hearts are sad to lose such an incredible friend. We count ourselves blessed to have known your gentle, kind hearted giant of a man. Tom’s artistry will long remind us of his own ability to be at one with The Creator. He truly understood the beauty and gift  of creation. His generosity & creativity has certainly improved the looks of the Alma community and beyond.  He will be missed and we will always think of him whenever Pansies are in  bloom.  We loved your Pansy Man!  You all remain in our prayers  🌺  🌸 🌹

We were so blessed to have known Tom.  The love, generosity & joy that radiated from that man was so contagious & he brought a smile to my face every time I saw him!  I will always think of Tom when I think of the Mulberry River & the fun times that were had thanks to the Perry family's extreme generosity & hospitality.  Truly one of a kind man  & he will be greatly missed. 

My family loved Tom.  He was a regular at our Bennett Superstop Shell C-store in Alma in the 80's and 90's.  I loved visiting with him about his projects and the things in his life.  He was a prince of a man and a loving soul.  God bless his family.  Much love.  Pete Bennett and family.

This goes back a long way beginning with high school days with Cheryl in a 5th period art class, she was a prodigy, the best of the best when considering art as a skill! She was dating this football stud from Van Buren, our rivalry school and no one was sure about this blue eyed, golden haired guy......but, he was different......good hearted, friendly, and cared so deeply for Cheryl....you could see the love in his steel blue eyes!
Years later I worked with Tom and his Dad and those were days I'll  always cherish, memories of Tom rooting me on when I thought I couldn't lift another  shovel or throw another sheet of sod! A team player, a motivator, a mentor...a true friend, and I don't say that lightly!!! These people are who you want to be like in life, trust me when I say...Tom is with the angels now, God's speed my friend....never forgotten, always loved....RIP Tom, until we meet again!
Love you always Cheryl!💖

Tom put his heart and soul into every project.  The waterfall he created for me has given me hours of peace, solitude, and pure enjoyment.  I had no idea how pretty he could make a water feature until my waterfall became a reality in 2005. It has Tom etched in every rock. I will never look at it or listen to it the same again.  I feel like I know have  my own piece of Tom with me at all times. Rest well Tom, you are loved by many. 

We were all sisters and brothers, young with the promises of family to be born yet. Each time we have come together since, the memory of that smile, twinkling blue eyes and arms thrown wide has warmed our hearts with every thought of Tommy. We will celebrate his life now with every memory. His smile will continue to light the way for us all.
