I worked with Tom at SK Learning years ago. We became friends at work and remained friends through golf. I always looked forward to playing golf with Tom, he had a way of making every round fun...even when we played bad! My condolences to Tom's family. He spoke of you often and loved you very much. He always shared updates of your latest accomplishments! I'll miss you my friend. Clay

I knew Tom off and on over a thirty year period. I have a lot of respect for Tom and he was a fine person. He was one of my supervisors at SaskPower when I first went into IT. He was great in keeping our unit and myself on track. I also worked with Tom at the Systems Centre. When I was with Saskatchewan Learning he was my Operations Manager for IT. He ran a great shop and we had few problems, and was often the voice of reason. My best memories are having played a few games of golf with Tom. He could settle you down if you were having a bad game or give you a hard time if you deserved it. Sorry for your loss. Greg

I also worked with Tom at the Systems Centre. He was a good friend, a fine curler and had a great sense of humour. We'll cherish those fond memories of him.

We were deeply saddened by hearing of Tom's passing. Over the years, he has been a very good friend to our family, as my dad described him often, "the best friend I ever had." We shared many dinners at "The Lakeshore" over the years, and while I always enjoyed his company and conversation, which often included a fair bit of teasing, I did find it disturbing how someone could eat a steak so very well done, bordering on blackened-definately not ever seen in our family! Only fair though I guess, he felt the same way about my lack of interest in golf. I mean, what normal person doesn't love to golf?!? Please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers. He was a good man. We will miss him very, very much. Sincerely, Lori, Dwaine and Family

I remember working with Tom when I was at the Systems Centre. Tom had such a wonderful sense of humor, and was a caring and helpful co-worker. Tom always had funny stories to relate, and was able to see the funny side of situations whenever possible. Topm worked hard, but always had a minute to answer questions, and to help his colleagues with a problem. I am sorry to hear of Tom's death, but I know your family will have lovely memories to give you some small measure of comfort in the times ahead. Please accept my most sincere condolences. You are all in my thoughts at this time. Take Care. Ginny
