Tom was a great co-worker and was truly one of the nicest people I know. Those are the ones we remember most…
Tom was such a kind person. it was always nice to be greeted by Tom at Zion. Very friendly and a warm smile. I’m so sad for all of you.
Marlys and family-Have known most of you at one point in my career. Tom was indeed a very warm,giving and caring person. My love and prayers are with all of you at this time. Our Father in Heaven indeed took another angel home to His Kingdom. Find comfort in your love and memories of this truly wonderful man.
I knew Tom from Birchwood, he was so caring and friendly. He would give my mom raspberries and they were delicious! He will be missed greatly. So Sorry for your loss.
A great and caring man with an open arm for a great hug. Someone to live by an example of how someone should treat others. An uncle that anyone would be proud to call family. Love and will miss you! Will always be a part of me!
Tom was a wonderful, caring, hard working man that always took time out to talk to you and would help you in a heart beat. He was so understanding when I lost my husband and offered to help me with anything I needed fixed around the house. That is a true friend and great coworker. I have missed him and will miss him. But I know he is whole again in no pain and one day I will see his wonderful smile again. God bless you all and you have my deepest sympathy and I offer myself for whatever I can do, maybe just a listening ear.
His smile is what a great memory I had of Tom at work..always smiling and willing to help out with whatever you needed. I am honored to have had him as a co-worker and friend. You will be so missed.
Tom was a great guy and those reading this knows he was a very handy guy very knowledgeable. He struck me as very close to his family in his day to day activites. He also very much appreciated the outdoors which is the side of tom I am most familar with. I remember fishing close to forest lake on his boat with other family members. I can recall his boat having a hard time starting. He knew what was happening and any frustration didn’t show on his face. We reached fishing grounds and he enjoyed the act of fishing just as much as he did teaching the grand kids. Another memory I shared with Tom was hunting. Swapping stories, sharing his land. I had fequently hunted neighboring land and we would try to help each other out. Outdoorsman his the side I know and will miss the next time I cast a line or rumage through hunting items. I am grateful for the experiences and what he taught me.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Tom was a great guy. He hired me at Birchwood even though I didn’t have much experience at the time. We hit it off right away because he was such an easy guy to talk to and he made starting a new job easy for me. He made it possible for my wife and I to buy our first home and we’ll never forget him. He’ll be missed by many.
