Tom was a good-natured, happy child growing up – liked to have fun.  He liked to be in outdoor sports, baseball, swimming, and motorcycle riding. But the one he loved the most was fishing.  Tom learned how to fish from his grandpa Hinkle in Montana when he was seven years old, and Tom always wanted to go to Montana during his vacations to go fishing.  A few years ago, he caught a huge fish – one of the biggest fishes on record and had it preserved.  The fish is on a plaque hanging on his wall in his home today.Tom was a peaceful person, easy to get along with.  He always kept his vehicles running and house in order. He loved to have brisket and steak barbeques.Tom loved the Lord Jesus.  He wanted to be off on Sundays to go to church. He talked about Jesus at work.
