I grew up with Tom and played baseball with him for many years. I remember him with such wonderful memories. He was always fun to be around and his love for baseball was contagious. We chased foul balls together at MaCarthur Stadium for many years. I am truly sorry for your loss and please know he will always be remembered by many people that you are not even aware of. I pray our wonderful Savior's peace and comfort for your family.

I worked with Tom for years in the Press Box when i was a teenager, he taught me so much about baseball and life. I even got a chance to play against him in the MSBL years later, he made watching baseball so great . He wrote a song about my baseball game with the Flintstone theme song i still remember every word. Condolences to the family

I was going to try and go through every comment and give a personal response, but I was so overwhelmed with the amount of entries and kindness shown from everyone. There are just no words to express how much this outpouring of love and support has meant to me and my family. Thank you and God bless!
Love, Diana, AnnMarie, Sam and Brian

Words cannot express how much I will truly miss Tom. The years I spent working with him at the ballpark were some of the best. He was a great friend who always supported me through thick and thin.
