Tom worked in agriculture his entire life in many different capacities. He was a long-time manager of MFA in Willow Springs where he enjoyed serving his customers as well as visiting with them over a cup of coffee. Tom enjoyed his job very much because he loved his customers.
Tom was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and uncle. He loved spending time with his family n the farm and working alongside his sons and five grandsons. His love of coffee, peanut butter and pecan pie was legendary.

Tom was simply a country boy; he was happiest on the farm. Because of this, his ashes will be spread on the farm he loved so much and his native State of Tennessee. He will be missed terribly by all those who knew and loved him.
