Sure miss those long humorous conversations we would have over the many years laughing and joking about our adventures together-Tom was a great person and friend that will never be forgotten. 

I will miss walking through those South Dakota fields with you.

I worked with Tom at the Miami Field Division Group 3 and at the DEA Academy. Tom could always be counted on whether flying DEA aircraft, training new Special Agents or working on the street.  I wish I could have worked with him longer.  He was a professional,  talented and most of all a loyal Special Agent,  father and man!

My prayers and thoughts are with Tom’s  family at this difficult time.

He will be missed.

Respectfully 

Bill Faiella


Tommy was such a good guy. Often had great conversations and valued his friendship.  Awesome asset to Law Enforcement and a true patriot to the US.  RIP brother

Tom was my firearms “Bay” instructor at the DEA Academy in 2002 (BA-150). He was an outstanding firearms instructor. He was tough on us but he prepared us well for a dangerous job. He showed us his lighter side towards the end of the academy, which was a humorous, compassionate individual who cared about all of his students. We had deep respect for him. My deepest condolences to the family, may he Rest In Peace.

I will never forget calling for backup as aTampa DEA agent when PCSO deputy Tom Davis arrived on the scene.  With his broad smile and quiet confidence we became instant brothers of law enforcement.   Within the year Tom was on the job and in Miami.   We kept up and helped each other when we could.   The conversation always turned to our families.  He was a proud family man and I could always tell that he was devoted to them.

Eventually Tom followed me to the Firearms Unit at Quantico.   Although we had not spoken for a while, it was as if we were back in Tampa.   Tom was always the same warm, positive, and helpful person.   We spent many hours on the firing line together teaching young basic agent trainees to “stop the threat” which he did with quiet professionalism.

I was glad to hear that after retirement he continued to teach others the important skills for a tough career.   And I am also glad Tom had time in retirement to enjoy life and his family.

God speed, Tom

Tom was such a great person and I am so glad the Lord brought his family and my family together through church over thirty years ago.  My heart broke when I heard of his passing, but I know I will see him again. Tom was always in a great mood and loved life. I remember being a kid and visiting his house so I could play with Leah. I remember going to a concert with Leah and her parents at Miami Arena. I am pretty sure it was Brooks & Dunn and he made sure we were watched over as we walked to the concert in that horrible part of  Miami. I remember feeling safe because he was with us. I am so thankful I got to see him again at Leah's wedding. My deepest condolences go out to Diane, Leah/Will, Matt/Katie, and Tommy/Jessica. I love you all!

Tom was a good man.
God bless him and his family.

Tom was the best brother in law I could ever ask for. He always was there with a kind word or a helping hand. The last time he and Diane visited with my Mom ,  I broke something in my Moms house.  Tom kept my secret and quietly went to the store , purchased and replaced what I had broken. Mom was none the wiser.  Thanks Tom, I don’t know how you ever matched that toilet seat.   I feel blessed to be able to call you and your family my family I Love you and will miss you.

As an infant, I would never allow anyone to hold me except for Uncle Tom. I attribute this to his gentle demeanor, enormous heart, and of course his sense of humor. It was a special moment to watch my son, Rowen, be comforted by the same Uncle Tom that I have always known. Uncle Tom, you will forever be missed and you will always be in our hearts. Go Gators!!

We are heartbroken  about Tom’s passing. Through the many years, he has always been very  kind, loving and caring  . His family was always the center of his life.
We loved his hilarious dry wit ( always a joke on hand) . We always enjoyed  the remarkable stories he would tell about his various work related adventures! Tom was loved by all of us. He will be  so missed.  His legacy will live on in his three wonderful children and grandchildren. 
Diane, we are here for you.

Tom was a true gentleman and friend.  I will miss spending time in the field with him as will his many friends.

Tom was such a pleasant , gracious man. Worked with Tom in a Roleplayer capacity at FLETC. Always a pleasure. Condolences to all Tom’s family . RIP my friend.

I only knew Tom for a short period of time, but from the moment I met he and Diane I knew they were the kind of friends I would want to have.  Tom was a class act in all respects, a patriot and a gift to society.  We send our blessings to Diane and the family.  RIP Tom.  We may have lost but heaven has gained.

Tom was fun to be around and always had a smile on his face. His time here was too short, but I know he is smiling down on us as we remember our time with him. Rest In Peace my friend. 

I always loved seeing Tom's smiling face every Sunday morning! I am so very grateful for Tom and Diane's love and support throughout the years. xoxo Kathryn 

We are so heartbroken of the loss of Tom. Tom loved Diane and his family more than words could say and we can’t forget about Cooper. Tom was my Facebook buddy we always commented on each other’s posts. Before Tom got really sick we were able to text and his last words to me were: “I will always have an extra prayer for you” That’s the kind of man Tom was. I feel so blessed knowing that I have another “Special Angel” always saying an extra prayer for me and when future good things happen I will always know it was my FB buddy Tom♥️

Tom was a great guy and friend. We will miss him very much. Prayers for Diane and family. 

Our hearts are heavy, the loss of a wonderfully kind man. Tom just drew people in with his smile and his kindness. Diane you have our heartfelt sympathy for your unimaginable loss of a wonderful husband and friend. Go rest high upon a mountain  Tom, Your work on earth is done. Rest in peace . You are already missed but we know you are watching over all of us. Love Martin and Sally 

Heartfelt prayers being lifted up here in Virginia for you Diane and family.  I never had the pleasure of meeting Tom but the memories and photos here tell me he was certainly larger than life and one loved man.  I'll continue to pray for you Diane that you keep that chin up and rest on your warmth of your memories.  Mary Pope

Love and prayers to you, Diane and your beautiful family.  Moe and I only met Tom briefly on our trip to Florida about 4 years ago.  In that short visit we knew Tom was a loving husband and a sweet man.  Wish we could have known him better.    

Keeping you and your family in our prayers.  

Love, Moe and Gale

Tom, you will be missed by family and friends. Your life was well lived, your dedication to your profession unsurpassed, your belief in a heavenly father unquestioned, and your love of family precious and always present...may God embrace you and welcome you to your eternal home and bring peace to your loved ones. 

My deepest heartfelt condolences. My thoughts and prayers are with you Diane and children. Tom was a wonderful person and one of the best instructors I ever had the pleasure of working with. He was sorely missed at FLETC when he retired and missed more so now by all that had the honor of his friendship. Rest in Paradise Tom.

Such wonderful memories of Thanksgiving dinners spent in Tampa at Aunt Ethel’s house with the family.... Permit fishing with dad and Tom at AMI....and as a teenager I loved when dad and I would occasionally go watch Tom play football at Plant HS. ...that was alway a treat. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Larry and I both knew Tom well and are so saddened to hear of his passing.  We all shared many good times as friends and Agents and know how much he will be missed.  God Speed Tom.  Diane, you and your family are in our prayers.  


Tom Davis was an early childhood friend of mine in Tampa, Florida, all the way through high school graduation - I am very saddened to hear of his passing and I have fond memories of our neighborhood friendship.  Tom was a big strong teddy bear of a guy who stood up for the smaller fellers in our little world, which was much appreciated. At one of the earlier Plant High School reunions Tom and I discovered our mutual interest in law enforcement, he a former deputy sheriff and federal criminal investigator and me a former state and federal prosecutor.  I join his loving family and many friends in expressing great pride in a life well and nobly lived for such great causes, professionally, personally and spiritually. I pray for peace, comfort and grace as we all grieve his passing.  JK

 I am so saddened to hear about my good friend Tom. Tom and I were forced upon each other in 1987 as BA51 roommates at Quantico. We immediately became best of friends sharing many good times, conversations and memories there. Being Tom's friend was a pleasure as he is a first class individual with a good wit and great sense of humor. Our friendship never ended and we always kept in touch even though we were on opposite coasts of the country. We would find a way to meet up whether it was a training course, air wing function, firearms event and even at a retirement seminar.  I always enjoyed our many telephonic conversations over the years as they always ended with humor and laughter.  A great man that will be dearly missed. Although Tom is gone from our sight he is not gone from our hearts and minds. 

Tom was my DEA Brother who I met when I retired from the Miami Field Division in 2016. He was always there for me at FLETC and I always enjoyed making him laugh, especially with the pictures I made in the office.  I will miss calling him when I drove home from work and having long conversations about the job and life in general.  He also like going out to eat with our crew, especially at the Campground restaurant.  I will miss him and his laughter......  Time to go home my Brother.....

I only knew and worked with Tom a short while at FLETC but always enjoyed his company. He was a member of what I refer to as “the old breed” of us in law enforcement in that he was dedicated, honest, and clear in his mission and words.   My deepest condolences to his family. 

A brother in arms gone too soon. So many fond memories over the years. I’m gonna miss you man. Our deepest sympathies from our family to yours.  
Randy and Ginger 

 I will never forget the times we worked together in Miami or the  hunting trips we shared in South Dakota.  Godspeed to you!

My heart is heavy with the loss of Tom.  I worked with him at FLETC, and loved his sense humor.  Tom, your work here is done, we will hold the line from here.  Godspeed to your wife, kids, and family..  RIP Tom.  


So sorry to hear about Tom , our whole family is thinking of you at this time . We three McCook girls all have such fond memories of our younger days and what fun our family's  always had together. Our prayers are with you now and always!

Tom and I worked together for several years. He was funny, witty and smart.  The world has lost a good one. I will truly miss him.

I am saddened at the passing of such a good man. I offer my prayers and since condolences to his family. I have fond memories of times shared at family gatherings with Tom. He was always  kind and welcoming . Again, I am sincerely sorry for his family's loss.

I am so sorry to learn about Tom. May your family find comfort in the many happy memories you share. My prayers are with you.
