Tom was a devoted husband, a loving father, and a friend to many. His warmth and gregarious spirit left a mark on everyone he met. He could strike up a conversation with anyone, at any time, and genuinely enjoyed getting to know people from all walks of life. His endless trove of stories brought smiles and laughter to countless moments, and he had a unique ability to find humor and light even in life's more difficult times.
Above all, Tom was deeply devoted to his family. He was a steadfast and loving presence — someone who would go to any length to support, protect, and care for those he loved. His dedication as a father and husband was unwavering, and his pride in his family shone through in everything he did.
He will be deeply missed, but his warmth, laughter, and love will live on in the many lives he touched.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to Cards for Hope in Tom's memory.
