Hi Dad, Happy Easter. I'm back with Mom for a week and we just think of you so much and love you so dearly. The stories and memories we have are so inspiring and intriguing. You touched so many lives and continue to be thought of every day. The blanket mom made me of your clothes keeps me close to you. We're going to church this morning so I need to get ready. "You were never late for anything Dad," I love you so much and miss you terribly.

Merry Christmas Dad. I missed you so much this year. I have traveled and enjoyed so many friends and family in the last three days. Maximus is getting so big Dad, he's such a good boy. He says,"thank you, and it just melts your heart. He is such a little Tom. I have to tell you what Mom made me for Christmas.
Mom had made your blue fish shirt into a quilt, her intentions were to give it to the Hospice House as a living memory of you and our experience there that have forever changed our lives. Mom had made the decision to give it to me along with a letter of how she made the decision to give it to me. I will read it to you later. I love you Dad.

Hi Dad. I'm thirty years old now and this will be the first fathers day I'm not with you. I. Have felt your presence with me every day since you passed this world. You're in my thoughts and decisions in literally all that I do. I feel like I haven't really had time to even mourn your passing. You raised me to be a busy body and that's exactly what I am. Sometimes I get an overwhelming sence of sadness because I want to talk to you and give you a kiss and tell you how much I miss you. I had a special connection with you dad like I have never saw in other families and I thank you for that. Come talk to me in my dreams tonight. I love you dad. Happy fathers day.

I remember the first time I met my Uncle Tom i must have only been like 4 or 5 years old, he pulled up in a big 18 wheeler at our house in Palmdale. I thought it was the coolest thing, he climbed in the back and brought in a bag of frozen chicken mcnuggets that he was supposed to deliver to mcdonalds. That was the best lunch ever!! I also remember the time when i was in cda visiting my mom he took me and the boys fishing at Spirit Lake(i think). I remember thinking it was so amazing that wew were catching buckets of these little blue back salmon on nothing but a glow hook and corn. Probably my most rememberable fishing trip. Then there was the time when uncle Tom and aunt Barb came to vegas for their anniversary and we went to the greatest all you can eat seafood buffet ever, we could hardly walk out of that place we were so full. I have so many good memories with my uncle Tom its hard to believe he's gone. He was the strongest, speak his mind, caring person i have ever known. I love you and will miss you always. Love your nephew Andrew.

Tonight I shared with our home group your life. You wanted to be remembered in this way. I wanted you to know this. Everyone there was silent as I spoke of you. Everyone there felt as if they knew you a little better having shared my memories of you. I took a big picture album. I told stories of our life. Things you and I have done. Many times I felt the tears welt up in me. I remembered your face when you told me you wanted to be remembered in pictures and stories, so I tried not to shed a tear. I did what you wanted, Babe.

I woke up last night laughing from the memory of my Dad on a fishing trip on lake CDA. This particular time we were in the salmon derby down in Carlin Bay and we were having the worst of luck. The main motor went out on the boat and the motor went out on the trolling motor except for some reason the reverse would work. So we docked the boat at Carlin bay and proceeded to drink derailers for a few hours while my dad worked on the main motor. He found out a bearing went out in the main motor so we had to use the trolling motor, only in reverse, to go all the way back to the resort where our truck and trailer were parked. Can you picture my brother and I laughing hysterically at ourselves while we're going about 5 mph backwards for three hours. We were clearly embarrassed so I decided to throw in my line to make it look like we were fishing. My Dad asked me what I was doing and I said," trying to catch a new bearing." He wanted to throw me in, I know it..... If you know Tom, you know he didnt have very good patience. I love you Dad...

Life with Tom had it's up's and down's. He was the kind of man that experiences life's moments with extreme intensity. He did take it to heart. There was very little that "rolled off his cuff". He had a excellent intuitive nature. In fact when I did interviews for employees at our business, or in my beauty shop, I always had Tom there to be the first to assess that persons character. He had uncanny ability to be very good at his assessment of whether or not they would be a good employee. On the other hand when someone gave him a critique he wore it like a cloak for a long time. He learned early on that good looks and a charming smile could get you pretty far, and he played that card pretty often. It was one of the things that drew me to him.

Tom and Barbara drove up to the Bonner County Hospital in Sandpoint, Idaho to see the Cassandra's newborn baby Gabriel. Tom just couldn't wait another minute to see the newborn, and of course, was one of the first to hold him close. He loved family and loved children.

During a family reunion at our house in Idaho Falls, we all decided to go down to the Snake because Jesse wanted to fish and everyone wanted to see the River. Sweet Tom is showing Jesse how to do it, and he enjoyed family times the most. Miss him dearly but I know Jesse and the family have fond memories of this joyous occasion.

I want to tell you all about something Tom did that was special to truck drivers away from home. Many times over the years , Tom would bring strangers home for Thanksgiving dinner. He would go down to the truck stop or bring them if he himself was on the road that week. He would ask, " Do you want a home cooked meal ?". Nobody would turn that down. Many times we had people we didn't know to share a meal with us. I know it meant a lot to Tom to extend this invitation. Usually I'd just thin out the gravy and heat up a extra vegetable dish. We always had plenty. Tom did this many times over the years. Not just at Thanksgiving. In the end I somehow knew when someone was coming, and turned it into a opportunity to share good food, good conversation, and our faith in Jesus.

I have only known Tom for a couple of years, but it doesn't take long to recognize the character of a man. Tom was a kind and compassionate man, always thankful! In 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 it says to be thankful in all circumstances. That was the Tom I knew. I can honestly say that I never heard him complain or feel sorry for himself. He always gave thanks to the Lord and never hesitated to share his testimony. We will all miss you and we are better for having known you.

You know how every family has at least one person in their family that always seemed to be larger than life, Strong, Independent, invincible type, that nothing could every bring this person down. Well for me that is my Uncle Tom, he always seemed larger than life to me. I remember times when I live in Idaho with him and Aunt Barb, how much he loved his kids, he was always there rooting them on while they played summer league baseball, or teaching them how to grow and be responsible while working small odd jobs for his Business. This November I got a chance to sit and just have a real talk with uncle and all I can say is his family is his life, the way he loved and cared for his family, I only hope to marry a man that loves me as much as uncle loved aunt barb. He was so proud of his kids, and how their life is now. I found this Poem and it makes me think of Uncle Tom.. ..I love you Uncle Tom
"A man's strength is measured by his heart"
It takes much to be a true man...
It's not just simply the gender;
Some think it's about the looks
But I know the truth
It's all about loving;
That spellbinding, radiation of pure, unconditional love...
You know a real man by the way he acts;
Every unselfish thing he does
Knowing he will always be there to help
Inside, a real man is filled with love
A real man cries...
And he does;
His heart has known pain
He's also known love which has left molded impressions deep within
A real man opens himself up to life experiences
Opening your heart is never wrong
And he has taught that not only to myself, but to others as well...
Within his rippled embrace; his strong, caring embrace
Solitude can be found
If only you take the time to know his depth and breadth
Very few know the true measure of a man;
Very few know the true measure of THIS man...
Every day,I feel it and his love makes me strong
May God grant him peace and serenity as he journeys on the sacred travels of his life
May he know only love; feel love...always
Until the stars fall from the skies
Until Mercury crumbles
Until the end of his days...

Uncle Tom,
Heaven got another angel when you left; you were such a wonderful man, full of love with a heart of gold and i miss you so much. Our family gatherings will never be the same without you. Your smiling face and happy disposition whenever we saw each other always made me happy- giving me a hug and saying, "hey sweetie how are you, glad to see you;" will never be forgotten. We were miles away from each other for a long time but all those visits when you and Aunt Barbara came to see us will always be remembered. You were the most ambitious person I've ever known, you were a role model to so many including me. Christ knows how truly special and touched person you are. It always touched me the way you wanted to be at church service early so you could have a perfect spot to listen to God's word. Easter is in a few days and I will miss you at church. Helping us move up here and coming to see me in the hospital just seems like weeks ago. I am truly blessed to have shared memories with such an amazing uncle. I hope your up there catching some yummy fish so we can share it together one day. I love you Uncle Tom and I truly miss you

My Dad was the kindest man I know. He loved all of us so deeply. We will never know how much because my Dad gave us what he never had. I wish I would have got my Dad to talk about his childhood but he never did. Probably had good reason not to. Nobody deserved what he went through as a child and a young man. My Dad used to call me all the time. Just to hear my voice or just to say "Have a good day, bud. I love you." I will miss that ever so much. It really hurts to know that when my phone rings and I look down at it; it will never say "Dad Calling." My Dad used to get so mad when people wouldn't answer his phone calls. He never understood that people might not be able to talk at that very minute. I would call him back as soon as I could and he used to say "When Im gone I hope you miss me." Well, he was absolutely right. I have guilt for some of the decisions I've made in my life that have had a negative impact toward my family. My Dad and Mom were the only ones who stood right by my side when I was going through the hardest time in my life. My Dad taught me the skills I have today that have put me where I'm at. I have seen many doors open in my life and I chose not to walk through. A door was opened for me in Idaho Falls and I chose to walk through. My family didnt agree with my decision to move away from home but my Dad did understand why. We had a long talk about where I was three years ago and where Im heading now and when he cried with me and told me how proud he was of me and my accomplishments it made me look at my Dad in a more special way. I love you so much Dad. Its so hard for me not being around Mom right now. I will keep my Dad's spirit with me in all that I do. I pray for strength and courage to show everyone that I'm strong enough to handle this. I ask Jesus to use me to show others that faith is the only way.

I loved Tom as my brother. We worked on vehicles together, went fishing, watched football, and enjoyed just talking about politics and how he was going to North Dakota to make a bunch of money. He helped my family move and was there for us whenever we needed an answer or counsel. I miss him terribly but have loving moments to remember him by. I'll never forget our "labama" discussions - we had lots of fun talking about politics. Your brother Mike.

Tom was my husband, friend, and best companion. We loved each other deeply. We were married 36 years. There are not enough pages for me to share all the memories I have. I called him, "Babe". " What's up Babe? How ya doin Babe? " Tom wanted to be remembered in the times when he was with us. I want to encourage everyone to share your memories. Say whatever you want to. Everyone had a special encounter with him. He touched a lot of lives. As things come to me , I will share special stories. This site will be a tribute to him forever. Please include a title in your story. Let it flow! Love B
