We are grateful for every story, every memory, and every act of kindness shared in honor of Tom’s life. This page honors Tom’s life through charitable giving and personal support for the family; no donations are collected in the name of a private foundation. For those who wish to celebrate his legacy, we’ve provided two meaningful ways to do so below.​​
Continuing His Spirit of Generosity
To know Tom was to know a man who opened his home to those navigating transitional seasons of life and who quietly, faithfully supported causes close to his heart. Offering aid, encouragement, and practical help was simply who he was.
For those who feel led to honor his memory through charitable giving, we invite you to consider supporting the organizations that mattered deeply to him:

Supporting The Family
The greatest gift you can give is your prayers, presence, and remembrance. For those who feel absolutely moved to provide additional support, contributions made directly to Tom’s immediate family are sincerely appreciated. Your kindness eases practical responsibilities during this season, allowing the family to focus on celebrating his life and caring for one another.
Please note: Contributions made to the family are personal gifts and are not tax-deductible charitable donations.
