Family was extremely important to Tom. He loved nothing better than being with his boys, watching them play sports and coaching them. A talented woodworker, he enjoyed spending time in his shop. Pieces of his furniture can be found throughout his home and other family member’s homes. Tom was a fan of I.U. basketball, the Colts, the Reds and oldies rock and roll. He liked cruising the back roads as well as spending time at “the land.” His family also shared that Tom will be missed by his faithful dog Belle and that an occasional cold Miller Lite draught was a good thing.
