So sorry to hear this news but also a smile to my face as I recall what joy Tom brought to everyone he encountered. He allowed the pressure of the business world to take away from the value of building relationships and enjoying the journey. May he rest in peace and know that his spririt for life has been sprinkled to so many people.

Tom gave me the opportunity to move into Document Handling. The pictures are from one of many industry events. Tom said wait a minute Bart I need to use the prayer booth.
Dad loved to dance. He wasn’t able to dance like he used to and these pictures are from our wedding. He loved to spin his partner and you can see the pure joy on his face. Hope you are dancing it up now Dad.
Tom and I spent a lot of time together the last five years and had a lot of laughs. Gambling on our card games at $5 a round, watching football hating on our rivals, or sitting on his deck, drinking beers, and playing music….he always made it fun. Cheers Tom: Let’s have one more game of cribbage,Travis Tritt’s greatest hits, and enjoy those beautiful views from your back deck.
