Love and Miss you, my favorite Brother In Law.
We just learned today of Tommy’s passing. We are heartbroken for the family. Tommy was a good friend and we shared many memories over the years. We will always be thankful for our last visit that now feels like it was “meant to be” driving through the old neighborhood we saw Tommy standing on his front porch waving to friends as they passed. We stopped and had a great visit sharing old times and laughing. We will be praying for his family and all those who loved him and will miss him. Ken and Margaret Wright.
Prayers and condolences for Tommy's family. I worked with him for over 10 years at Eastman on the container yard. He was a bright light. He kept us laughing. We all thought the world of him. He will be greatly missed. Much love sent to his wife, daughters and grandchildren. He always bragged on his family. He loved them dearly.
Kathy and family - We are so sorry for your loss. Tommy was a dear person, and friend to the Kindle's. May you find peace and comfort in the days ahead as you rely on the Lord for all your strength and direction. Love to you all, Mike and Connie Kindle

Tommy would give the shirt off his back to someone less fortunate than himself,but he would also fight a circle saw if you crossed him.
He was gentle & kind,truly loved his Family & the Lord.
