He graduated from Garfield High School and joined the U.S. Army in 1973. He was stationed at Ft. Bliss in El Paso, TX where he served as a military police officer.
Tom worked a number of security jobs. He owned his own guard dog business "Guardian Security Dogs" in El Paso, TX for 10 years. He worked security for White Sands Missile Range. And lastly, Tom worked for the city of El Paso's Animal Services, where he was a Senior Officer. He retired in 2018.

Tom was an avid family man. He loved camping and hiking with his family. He enjoyed riding his motorcycle and target shooting with friends and family. He also loved listening to music and playing pool with his children. One of his favorite things in the world was playing with his two grandsons.

An Irish Blessing;
May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face
And the rain fall soft upon your fields,
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of his hands.
