Tom will be remembered by his willingness to always help out a friend, his hearty laugh and strong work ethic. Tom loved to dance and was very much a ladies’ man. He will be dearly missed. We will always have hundreds of treasured memories. We know he will be dancing up a storm in heaven. Rest in peace. Love from all your family.
