MemoriesHe was so excited when I finally caught my first fish I thought he was going to explode with laughter! It was about a 1 lb. perch that he fried up for me that night. haha I'll never forget that.He had such a big heart.. If he ever had to get on to me as a child, which was next to never, he alway came back and told me he was sorry and how much he loved me.He took me on my first trip to Six Flags and my first concert. We saw Alabama, and I thought I was somethin riding in that sharp sports car he had. He always made me laugh.
We are all here for you to lean on during this time, beautiful sister. He was a fighter and the only man I ever called "daddy". I know he is singing and dancing is his new perfect body, and I look forward to seeing him again. I love you dearly sister… Love, Cindy
Nancy, I'm so sorry for your loss. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Tommy was my friend from elementary school through high school. If I could describe him in one or two words they would be:sweet and gentle. You have my most heartfelt sympathies.Much love,Ceci Connor
Mike and I were so sad to hear of Tommy's passing. He was one of Mike's dearest friends and they shared a lot of good memories. And even though they didn't see much of each other after they got older, Mike will always remember him and all the fun times they had together.
We were so very sorry to hear about Tommy's passing and sad that we didn't know about it until it was too late to attend the Memorial Service. Our love and prayers go out to the family.
We are so sorry to hear about Tommy. You will be in our thoughts and prayers.
The Double Two StepYears ago we spent hours in the living room two stepping to Neon Moon.He didn't have a clue at first but mastered it wonderfully! Many years later at the Iron Bluf Neon Moon came on and we danced. WOW!!! He was the best double two stepper ever!
My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you. Tommy and I had many good times together in high school and working together at LSS/USS. May God bless each and everyone of you.
I am sorry for your loss. Tommy was a good friend through middle and high school. I am sorry we did not keep up with each other as we should have. God bless you all.

I Love you Daddy. More today than ever you are missed. Six years have passed. It seems like yesterday. I see you every day in my Carson. I love how God worked that out. You would be so proud of your grandkids.
I just learned of Tommy’s death on 5/25/20025. I am really bummed out about it. Tommy and I were in Military Police training at Fort Gordan, Georgia. After training, we were both sent to Pusan, Korea to be MPs. We were both Texans and soon became best friends. We partnered up when ever possible. I trusted Tommy with my life many times. We were in several scrapes and had many adventures. We always had each other’s backs in those scrapes and I never had to turn around to see if he was still there. Even though the last time we got to visit was about forty years ago, I miss my friend and think of him often. Larion Crumley “old man” as I was called.
