Memories of Tom

Your presence commanded respect! And we honored that! And loved it even more when you would laugh or crack jokes or crack that little smirk of yours- that showed us all you were human! ❤️
When you were serious, we all knew it, and responded accordingly.
I was terrified of you as a kid, but at the same time, I knew u loved me because I was family (and happened to be your best friends daughter 😉)
You had a great sense of humor, your smile/smirk was genuine and contagious.
You had a strong sense of pride for our country and family and a great love of history.
You were my daddy’s best friend, you played football in high school together along with the third musketeer Rick Ottenhauf.
When my dad passed, I looked to you for that bear hug I was missing from my dad.
You gave me my dad’s dog tags, folded in a flag, it was so touching and special to me. I will never forget that! My oldest son Justin has them now.
I remember all the oldies you played on that old record player that was in that beautiful wood cabinet, especially around Christmas time. Every time I hear many of those songs such as the little drummer boy etc., it takes me back to those wonderful memories.
Scary movie nights during sleep overs with my cousins. Nightmare on Elm street ruined scary movies for me, I still don’t like scary movies!
Camping and campfire stories that were so scary and believable, we loved it but we were genuinely scared too. And if the stories weren’t enough with how convincing you were, you would mess with our tents after we went to bed. Scared us into staying quiet in our tents. Lol
You made my cousins birthdays so special with your well thought out and HARD scavenger hunts!
The school projects you helped my cousins build were incredible pieces of art.
I have so many wonderful memories of you that I will hold in my heart until we meet again.
The three musketeers are United once again! I’m sure you all are having a grand time and watching over us! Give my dad, grandmas, aunt Stephanie, uncle Larry, And Rick a big hug from me. Lots of love, Janiah

Where to even begin.. My dad was an epic story teller and his clue games were amazing! Lola was unforgettable during Halloween with the red haired wig and beer belly and goatee.. dressing up as Lola for a radio station contest where he won 1st place and took home 10 tickets to Neil Diamond. I loved our camp trips and parties and time at the lake.. He could always make things fun even when we didn't have much money.. like rolling our big tv console to the back patio sliding glass door and we all sat in lawn chairs outside and it was like a drive in movie at home❤️ our family night swimming in the pool with all the tiki lights he hung up... He would play Santa with his big boistrious voice and laugh until we figured out he was our dad.. Then he would dress as Santa forhis grandkids.. He would buy candy bars and hide them around the house and have us go search and find them (probably where I learned all his chocolate hiding places and could always find where he stashed his chocolate) dancing on his toes as a little girl to the oldies to our last dance at my wedding.. I could go on and on... I love and miss you so much daddy.. Tell we meet again.. See ya later❤️😘

I have always told my girls and friends of my uncle Tom's epic campfire stories. How his smile and eyes sparkled while he watched us kids lean closer in while we listened intently, knowing that any second we would all scream or run in terror at whatever twist was coming any second. Our grumpy ole uncle Tom was always a big ole soft bear in my eyes, always gave the best hugs and had the best laugh. I can't listen to oldies without him in my mind. He was a part of almost every fun and happy memory for me as a kid, from camping, being yelled at at 2am during sleep overs with Shilo, learning to swim in the back yard pool, all of the many many family BBQs, and even mundane Sunday mornings. Uncle Tom, you are unforgettable to anyone who knows you. I love you! See you when it's time for me to go home. Go have a beer with pops and give grams a big hug. 💛
