I'm so very sorry to hear of Tom's passing. He was so very nice and kind to me. Love for you, Jeff and Kim. Penny
So sorry to hear of Toms passing,I worked
with him at NFS, I hired in at 19 and Tom
was one of my first supervisors and always
was my favorite, he used to tell people
he was helping my folks raise me because
of my young age at the time. He was
genuinely a good person and a fine man
that I looked up to. My condolences

I worked with Tom for years in the G/W Dept at Plus Mark. I was the clerk for the dept. at that time. Tom helped me so much. He was thoughtful and funny. He always came in with a smile. I've thought often of Tom in the past years.
You have my sincere sympathy. I know he will be deeply missed.
So sorry to hear about Tom's passing. Love
you.

Jeff.
Dru called last night, at the very same time that Harbison messaged us, with the sad news. Know how much we all love you, and how beautifully apparent it was to all of us, how much Tom loved you. Remember those special times. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Norma.

To my best friend in the world, I am so sorry. Your Dad was an
incredible person and like a father to me. I didn’t deserve to be
treated so good by your Mom and Dad. I will never forget the
great times we had and I regret so much that I didn’t get to see
him one more time. I can never repay your family for the love
you’ve always shown me . I wish there was a way to express
the love I owe this family. I pray you can forgive me for being
so far away and for so long. Thank you for always treating my
wife and kids so great. I love you, Tom, Norma , Jeff and Kim

So sorry for your loss but thankful for his joy in heaven and
that you will see him again!
We had such a great high school class (1961)....and though it
has been so many years, I think of Tom and all of our
classmates with warm feelings of good friendships.
Praying for your comfort.

Norma, I was so sorry to hear of Tom's passing.
He was my supervisor at Plus Mark, but I also
considered him a great friend. I know he will
be missed greatly. He spoke often of his family
and I actually got to meet Jeff at Walmart one
day that they were there. He was the type of
person that made you feel you needed to strive
to do a good job for him just by the way he
treated those of us who were lucky enough to
have him as our supervisor. I know he truly
will be missed, He will always be in your
hearts but Heaven gained an angel in Tom. You
all have my deepest sympathies.
Tom was my boss at Plus Mark, he was such a kind
person, will always remember him for his love of
being a UT Vols fan, God bless you and so sorry for
your loss.
