Guestbook

  1. I’ve been in a state of shock since I read Jerry’s posting.
    I worked with Tom at the Department of Revenue Personnel Office until I retired in 2005.
    Tom was a very special young man; he’s not much older than my two sons & he was a favorite of mine!
    Heartfelt prayers for all of you; Tom will always be remembered!

  2. Tom was an all-around great person and co-worker. He will be dearly missed. He was the Goat of HR at the Missouri Lottery, and he did his job with great pride. He was known to drop in for a visit from time to time and would strike up a good conversation about all sorts of things from work, fast cars, and just to see how you were doing, because he was that kind of person. He also loved his Hawaiian shirts; he started a tradition of wearing one at least once a week to work. Some other co-workers, me included, started wearing them to work too, it was fun. Thoughts and prayers to his friends and family. Rest in peace brother.

  3. Enjoyed seeing Tom every time at MO Lottery. He will be missed. RIP Tom. πŸ™β€οΈπŸ™
