I worked with Tom at Sibley’s, many years ago. Tom was a kind friend. I had just moved to Hilton and Tom showed me around what he called a mini Peyton place. He was a shy man and I was honored to be counted as his friend. Tom was a very creative and meticulous craftsman. When he started on his house, I asked him if he didn’t think that was a mammoth job to take on He had a vision and completed it block by block. Tom was a quiet man with a big heart. The world needs more gentle men with loving hearts like Tom. He will be missed
