Tom joined the St. Paul’s Baptist Church in Clayton on May 28th, 2017. Although he was only a member for a very short time, his devotion to the Lord and the church family was a high point in his life. He loved St. Paul’s and continually invited and wanted his family to come and worship with him at his church home.
Thomas was a veteran of the U.S. Army and a Past Master Mason at the Thomas R. Patton Lodge #659. He enjoyed fishing and going to flea markets, especially Cowtown where he was a steer wrestler in the Cowtown Rodeo for many years. Tom loved traveling, especially back and forth to Memphis, Tennessee to visit family. He loved helping others in any way he could and will be sadly missed.
