Diane: I’m so sorry to hear the news of Tom,, one of the best times of my life was that boat ride we took photographs of the big ships. Prayers for peace for the family..
I remember one year he came up hunting with my dad at Pines Point and spent the night with us so he could go out opening morning. My sister and I slept in her bed and he slept in mine. He snored so badly and I could not get any sleep so I got up in the night and stuffed a doll dress in his mouth so he would STOP! I was probably 7 or 8 years old. Always enjoyed the times he and his family came to visit. Great people! The world is sorely lacking in people of Tom's caliber. RIP Tom
Tom was one of my husband's best friend and Golf partner, for many years. I believe they are in heaven giving each other a big hug and talking about golfing. I have wonderful memories of Tom and he will be missed. Love you Tom
So many memories with this man, my sister's husband. Couldn't ask for a better brother-in-law. A nice man with a ready smile and so welcoming. It was a pleasure to know him and I will always remember him with fondness. Heaven gained a generous angel, that's for sure. I hope they have golfing, boating, and Jimmy Buffet songs for you in heaven Tom. You're gonna be missed. Diane, I'm here for you anytime you need me.
Such a nice, nice man! I never saw him that he didn’t have a smile on his face and a welcoming hug. This world will be a little sadder without him in it! My prayers are with you Diane.
Thank you Tom for being such a wonderful friend ,I will sure miss you buddy ,love Jimmy
Tom was a great man! He taught my husband how to make the potato’s for Mother’s Day and Easter brunch, then handed down his spatula to him! Tom did so much for the boat club, way to many things to list! I also remember the great times we all had at mackinaw! He also did our leaves one year in a barter job, if you know my yard!! He is the reason I ended up buying the machine he used, and we think of him every year we pull it out! God bless you Tom! Sleep with the angels ❤️🙏😢
