Here are some highlights from the plaque honoring Tom, hanging on the wall by the list of Scholarship winners, in the Clubhouse.
Tom loved being at the rifle range or helping at the shoots. There wasn’t anyone that could make you laugh till your sides hurt like Tom. Tom loved to be outdoors doing anything that had to do with nature, with his friends, or his son. Tom would want us all to remember him as he was, always in his funny orange hat. A face full of life, a smile big and bright, enjoying what he loved, what could be better than that.
