A devoted and loving Husband, (Patricia) Father, (Heidi and Rebecca) Stepfather, Grandparent, Uncle, Brother and Friend.
Thomas loved his family and friends beyond words as he was loved immensely.
He would do anything for anyone, a generous giving soul with no return expectations. His laughter and wit would fill your heart with lasting memories that will never be forgotten.
A British sense of humor to carry him through good and challenging times.
His faith in God has always been strong, hand in hand, moment by moment. A Teacher for many years, this he loved, he was a teacher to us all indeed.
Sports was always a grand part of his life, from Rugby, Tennis, Swimming, Cycling and Running.
In his later years travel became a great passion, from the Singing Tour in Ireland to the Australian Opera House.
Thomas could build, create or invent just about anything you could imagine. He could fix or renovate an old house or build a treehouse or two for his little girls.
Nothing was impossible.
