Tom loved his family and especially his grandchildren. He was a gifted woodworker and took great joy in building special gifts for his grandchildren. He was a member of SASS, the Single-Action Shooting Society, and shared many enjoyable times, dressing as a cowboy and shooting rifles and pistols from the 1800's. He loved owning two corvettes at one time and being a member of the Roanoke Valley Corvette Club. Tom also enjoyed fishing and spending time on the water.
He is survived by his loving wife of 55 years, Linda Gibbs; two daughters, Donna Epple (Carl) and Nancy Gale; two brothers, Dennis Gibbs and Terence Gibbs; one sister, Constance Demos; three grandchildren, Megan VanBuskirk, James VanBuskirk, and Cristian Laskowski; and one great granddaughter, Gabby.
