Lou Ann, we are so sorry to hear about Tom. Tom was my first (and one of my alltime most favorite) Boss in Nuclear Power almost 40 yrs ago at Palisades Plant. We hit it off immediately with the fact that we both were from Bay City, and we both loved to hunt and fish as well as play Tennis. I spent some awesome time on his boat and he taught me a lot about fishing Lake Michigan and about life. What a great mentor he was to me and a great man. Take care and please let us know if you need anything. Tom will be missed by all that knew him.

Lou Ann,
Sorry to hear of Tom's passing.
We had some great adventures on Michigan's golf courses.
You could always tell when he was having difficulty because you could hear him say "Tom Tom Tom Tom".
I will miss him.

Lou Ann,
So sorry to hear about Tom's passing. Although I didn't know him well, it appears he was living his dream and you were able to share it with him. A good man who left this life too soon. You know that you have friends and family to help you through this when needed. Be strong and treasure the memories.

Dear Lou, I am so sorry to hear about Tom's passing. As you know, I knew him for about 40 years and always enjoyed working and talking with him. We shared a love for the outdoors and it was always fun to swap stories, and yes lies about our hunting and fishing skills. He was a well respected professional in the nuclear business we worked in.
I also have fond memories of you and our endeavors to prepare fine lunches with our fellow orphans in the QA trailer. If I can provide help in any way at all please don't hesitate to give me a call at 637-6125. I'm always available and would love seeing you again. You are in my prayers. George
