Remember. Honor. Teach.
Tom was the 2020 Schneider Ride of Pride driver and along with his wife, Janet, visited Columbia Falls, ME in 2020 and 2021. They delivered veteran wreaths to Arlington National Cemetery in 2020 and to Sarasota National Cemetery in Florida in 2021. They loved every aspect of the Wreaths Across America program and were graciously embraced by volunteers in Columbia Falls and all across the country as they traveled to deliver wreaths.
There is a picture of Tom and Morrill from 2021 when they presented him a project pin from the youth president of Iowa Children of the American Revolution. The project was supporting Iowa Veterans Cemetery. His dog tag is already hanging in the Remembrance Tree grove, alongside the dog tag for his parents, who were both proud Navy Veterans.
Their memories with Wreaths Across America are sustaining them and helping them through this time. Tom would want everyone to remember him and celebrate.
