Tom was the first person I met when I came to town. It was some kind of audition. We got along great immediately. We worked on different projects and together occasionally for decades. He did some of
the best TV ever produced in town. Always available, he was generous kind ae’d e

I was blessed to have the opportunity to work with Tom over the past several years. He always lit up the room with his quick wit and positive attitude. I am forever grateful for the opportunities I had to learn from him and for the times we enjoyed together. He is deeply missed. My deepest condolences go out to his family.

I just learned of Tom's passing. It's hard to imagine the loss for his family and friends. I worked with Tom for a number of years. He was always congenial and slow to anger, kind, and a very heart-warming man.
My heart and prayers are with all of you.

I am from the Sporting Goods Industry and a retired Manufactures' Rep. I met Tom when he was at A & F / Oshmans. We became close friends and he and his friend Mike spent numerous nites on our place here in Brown County, stalking Wild Turkeys, some of which were 'bottled'! Tom was/is in that 'handful' of "THE Best"!! I will miss him & have many fond memories, both learned and/or experienced with "My Friend". Our Daughter, Susanna loved Tom too! Somehow, I will send Debbie a wonderful Photo of her on Tom's knee. It is a favorite memory for us. May God Bless you Debbie. Call if you ever need to.
Heaven is a better place with Tom, who will have a Wonderful Audience with
All The Saints !

To all of the family--Tom was always helpful and understood the issues with paddle sports over the years that he was our rep. A great guy and he will be missed. He cared about his customers who also were friends.

Dear Debbie and family,
We've been working side by side with Tom for over 20 years. He took good care of his entire family, all his associates, and all his dealers. He was always ready with an answer or ready to find an answer to any question we may have had. Most importantly, he loved the Lord and he reflected that love to all he came in contact with. We're truly sorry he's gone, but we will get to see him again. May the Lord bless and keep you and yours. Let us know if we may help in any way.

I was a fellow sales rep like Tom and was lucky to have some product lines in common. At sales meetings, I would do anything I could to sit next to Tom. I learned so much from him about how to treat not only people but challenges in life. One of my fondest memories was an afternoon we spent in a canoe floating down the St. Croix River in Wisconsin. You will be missed by this world Big Biscuit.

It was a priviledge to have known him and called him a friend. I trust I will see him again and we will catch up then. He will be missed. Harry Puryear

I am sad to hear Tom has passed. I sure he will be mourned by who have know over the years as friend. I met him in 1967. We hunted together for a few seasons. I am sure he is gone to heaven. Absent from fresh, present with the Lord.

Tom was a high school classmate and friend.
He was very well admired and liked by all who knew
him. His good nature and positive
attitude was infectious and influential at all times.
Rest In Peace Tom. You will be missed.
